Description

Zootrophion atropurpureum is a fascinating epiphytic orchid known for its unusual, darkly colored flowers and compact growth habit. Native to regions including Jamaica, Cuba, Hispaniola, Colombia, Ecuador, Costa Rica, and Brazil, it thrives at elevations between 400 and 2000 meters. The plant typically blooms from late summer to winter, producing one to three striking flowers per inflorescence, each about 2 cm wide .

Care Tips:

  • Prefers partial shade and high humidity
  • Water daily or keep the roots from drying out completely; mounted plants benefit from daily misting and occasional soaking
  • Ideal for terrariums or orchid collections that mimic cloud forest conditions
