Lepanthes mastodon

Little guy that lives in my tank. Ive noticed it grows two types of growths, a non flowering smaller leaf and a larger flowering one. Its probably like 1 cm wide x 1.25 cm long. Warm intermediate grower, giving it RO to keep relatively moist.

Wow thats an interesting observation. If that happens throughout the species, no doubt it is an adaptation to help make the flower more visible. Thanks for sharing!
