Description

Restrepia antennifera ‘Ecuagenera’

Name: Restrepia antennifera Kunth ‘Ecuagenera’

Etymology: The genus name Restrepia honors José Restrepo; antennifera means “bearing antennae” and refers to the long, narrow floral parts. ‘Ecuagenera’ denotes this selected cultivated form.

Origin/Distribution: The species is distributed in the Andes of northwestern South America.

Location/Habitat: We grow ‘Ecuagenera’ in cool to intermediate conditions at about 13–22 °C, with very high humidity, bright filtered light, and continuous gentle air movement. The fine, airy substrate is kept evenly slightly moist.

Description and Notes: This compact miniature orchid produces upright growths, each with a single leaf. Its distinctive flowers appear laterally at the base of the leaf; established growths can bloom repeatedly. The ‘Ecuagenera’ selection is cultivated for its distinctive floral pattern.
