Name: Lepanthes calodictyon Hook.
Synonyms: Stelis calodyction Spruce 
Etymology: calodictyon = beautiful net — composed of the Greek words kalos (beautiful) and diktyon (net) and refers to the spectacular, net-like venation.
First description: 1861 by William Jackson Hooker.
Origin / Distribution: Western Colombia and Ecuador.
Location / Habitat: Growing epiphytically in moist, moss-rich cloud forests at elevations of 450 to 1500 meters. After deflasking, it requires shady to partial shade conditions (no direct sun), a consistently high humidity of 75–85%, and continuous, gentle air circulation.
Description & Notes: Lepanthes calodictyon is considered one of the most fascinating miniature orchids of all. Its outstanding feature is its almost round, delicate leaves with a distinctly wavy margin, which are crisscrossed by a contrasting, net-like venation in red-brown or dark green tones. The tiny, seemingly tirelessly successive flowers sit directly on the upper surface of the leaf. They are extremely delicate in construction and shine in translucent red and yellow tones. Due to its origin from moist cloud forests, the species is sensitive to drying out after planting.

In vitro culture: You receive a bottle with 4 young plants. The plants are usually already large enough to be deflasked. After opening, remove the nutrient medium particularly carefully from the very fine roots with lukewarm water and place the young plants on moist sphagnum or in a very fine, airy, and slightly moisture-retaining substrate. In the first few weeks, we recommend very high humidity, cool to intermediate conditions, protected light, and gentle, continuous air movement. Keep consistently slightly moist and avoid complete drying out.
