Columnea orientandia “Mindo Ecuador”

Columnea orientandia is an attractive tropical Gesneriad native to Ecuador that prefers intermediate moisture and light. It can be a bit slow to grow, but it makes up for this with its incredible bullate texture and pendant growth habit. We have found this species easy to propagate in vivarium culture.

All of our cuttings have adventitious, aerial roots. Our rooted specimens will have at least a few active roots and will be established plants. Our plants are grown in high humidity in terrariums and greenhouses, therefore may need acclimation to the average home humidity / environment. Please contact us for acclimation information if you are not planning to use this plant in a terrarium, greenhouse, or humid room.
