At around the same time I also bought a phragmipedium andreettae flask which I lost half the seedlings so a smaller loss rate than fischeri. This year I bought a phragmipedium anguloi flask and they’re growing well and I haven’t lost any. I don’t know the care differences between those phragmipediums, what are the care differences? My current conditions are 19-30 degrees Celsius, 70-99% humidity and low airflow. I also have a schlimii var manzurii and I bought it as an advanced and established seedling and it’s growing well in my care.

fischerii: epiphyte: The known habitats are in altitudes of around 1400 m above sea-level, along small rivers in fully shaded spots that are exposed to a constant breeze.

andreettae: lithophyte: It grows on rocks and on steep banks along fast flowing streams in shaded spots in montane forests between 500-1000 meters above sea level. ... Andreetta's Phragmipedium like high humidity preferably above 50%. Good air movement should be ensured.
