Haraella Retrocalla in bloom
Here's my Haraella Retrocalla in bloom, and some infos from IOSPE
A miniature sized, Taiwanese, epiphytic species found in ancient forests at elevations of 1000 to 2200 meters that needs warm to cold conditions with even year round watering and medium bright light with short, leafy stems carrying distichous, fleshy, falcate, oblong to oblanceolate, acute leaves that blooms on a short, pendant, axillary, few [to 3] flowered inflorescence with deltoid bracts and successively opening flowers occuring in the fall to early winter. This plant does best mounted on a piece of driftwood but a pot will do.

This is adorable. Do you let it dry out before watering?

Hi Jackie. I prefer never let it dry out too much because it likes a very wet environment.

Just as a note I'm with Jade on watering this. I prefer it doesn't fully dry out. Like Jade mine is mounted so it get's plenty of air even if it stays damp all the time. |
