Lepanthes telipogoniflora

[ronaldhanko]

Tom,
I've found (I think) that my Lepanthes are quite sensitive to light - moving them just a few inches to a place where they are shaded by another plant or out of the shade of another plant seems to make quite a difference - both ingridiana and calodiction did not do well until I gave them less light (especially calodiction) and my telipogoniflora did better when I moved it out of the shade of another plant.

Thanks, Ron. My plant has been in the same spot for two~three years. It was doing well until I remounted it last summer...It may live but I am in the peocess to get another one, just in case.

Any idea why it declined? Was it just the remounting?

[Tom-DE]

No idea why my plant declined after remounting. It just dropped the leaves gradually and no new growths for awhile... It was in good condition when I pulled it off the old mount.

I can almost feel your pain!!!! This is one I wouldn't want to lose.
