Chad I am interested in getting Lepanthes telipogoniflora, I figure the 25.00 means the price what is the C designation?

[qwertkb2d]

Pretty sure:

C=cool growing
I=intermediate growing
W=warm growing

combination means growing range so WI=warm/intermediate

...I'll take some telipogoniflora and calodictyon

Where are these coming from?

Looks like Ecuagenera's list.

[markpulawski]

Can you list the appropriate temps for the 3 designation..hi's & low's? Might make for some easy decisions.

PM me if you want to hear about Ecuagenera pre-orders and import quality.

The temp designations are somewhat broad as I understand it, but there should be some searchable sources online that give actual temps.


I don't doubt that Ecuagenra makes solid environmental suggestions based on their experiences and data, but I like to cross-check info before getting orchids. Although L. teliopogoniflora has been given a 'C' for cool here, orchidspecies.com would give this one an 'H' for hot. IOSPE PHOTOS Perhaps this orchid is found at both low and high elevations, making it adaptable to a wider variety of conditions?? That or someone has incorrect info. which could be based on a typo or growing experience versus actual wild growing conditions.

Andy's Orchids and orchid forums are also good places to check for cultural info before selecting plants... the more sources agree on something, the more I would trust it. For instance, here is another source that does not list the plant as a cool grower: Lepanthes telipogoniflora If anyone is interested in getting some Lepanthes to grow in dart tanks or anywhere for that matter, I would recommend searching them by name.

[spottedcircus]

would any of these grow well in the typical dart frog vivarium? or would it be too moist & warm. Most of the ones I like the photos of are listed as cold

[Epiphile]

As per the above, I'd cross-reference a few listed as growing cool- I have at least one that's doing well in intermediate temperatures.
