This is a lovely little epiphyte hails from the Comoros and Madagascar where it grows in humid forests from sea level to 600 meters. I got mine from the German grower Karge a couple of years ago and have since been growing it mounted in the warm vivarium. I grow it fairly bright, perhaps 10 cm from the light (9000 lumen), and I was rewarded with three inflorescences this year. Each inflorescence carrying about 12 lightly peach colored and wonderfully fragrant flowers.
Beautiful flower! Will have to go get one myself. I’m in love with my neofinetias/darwinaras/neostylis too. Just got a bellina last week, can’t wait for it to bloom.
Awesome growing setup. Really enjoy your blog.
Thank you Lolia! Very nice to hear that you enjoy my blog!
Yes, this species is lovely, you definitely need one for your collection. Good luck on blooming your bellina, it likes it warm and humid.
