Dischidia acuminata is a trailing epiphyte with pointy small narrow green leaves. It produces small, bell-shaped white flowers, about 2 millimeters in diameter, that grow in clusters at the leaf nodes, especially during warmer months.

Features:

  • 🌿 You will receive plant shown in photos, packed in its pot
  • 🍃 small pointy green leaves 
  • 🌸 white flowers
  • 📍 Grows well in temperatures between 15-30 degrees celsius. Prefers medium to bright filtered light
  • 🌱  Best grown in hanging pit where stems can trail.

Care Tips:

  • Light: Bright, indirect light is best. Tolerates morning sun but avoid harsh afternoon rays. Too little light may slow growth.
  • Water: Allow the top few centimeters of soil to dry out between waterings. Use the "soak and dry" method and avoid waterlogged conditions.
  • Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity (50–70%). Benefits from misting or added humidity in dry environments.
  • Temperature: Warm grower: range is 25–35°C. Keep away from cold drafts and protect from temperatures under 15°C.
  • Soil: A light, airy mix is essential. Use orchid bark, perlite, and coco chips for excellent drainage and root health.
  • Feeding: Feed monthly during the active growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced houseplant or orchid fertilizer.
  • Growth Habit: Moderate grower with vining stems that can be trellised or left to trail. Trim occasionally to encourage bushiness.

Notes:

  • Plant will be posted in its pot to minimise transit stress
  • Leaf shape and color may vary slightly by season, light and growing conditions
  • Ideal for beginner, intermediate to advanced collectors with a love for the unusual foliage
