Gongora Galeata Characteristics
The mini orchids they are the distinctive result of crosses of small hybrids and naturally occurring species. This terrarium plant also can be easily tied as epiphyte without a pot with some sphagnum moss in the root ball.
Like its older sisters, a mini orchid is placed in the well-lit place of the terrarium or vivarium at warm temperatures of 20 to 26 degrees. Under LED lighting, these orchids can also be placed relatively close to the light source. Please note that the images serve only as an example to identify the species, and normally shipped without flowers.
Orchids are a colorful addition to any natural vivarium. Mostly epiphytic in nature, orchids are best anchored in wood or at the bottom of a tropical vivarium. The orchids they will not tolerate stagnant water on their leaves and they will benefit greatly from regular air circulation in the terrarium. Make sure to use a well-draining substrate when planting orchids or simply attach them with sphagnum moss to any surface.
