Ascocentrum pumilum

Ascocentrum pumilumNear blooming size to bloom size seedlings of this miniature Vandaceous species from Taiwan. Spikes produce multiple flowers, and a plant in full bloom is a sight to behold. Flowers can cover the plant on a well grown specimen. I have had good luck with this one in terraria as it will never outgrow even the smallest of tanks.

I think it is well-suited to ventilated terrariums as long as its size can be managed

Species from Southeast Asia

Blooming-size plants in 2" pots

It does just as well in a terrarium as it does on a windowsill

making it ideal for a terrarium

A humid but not wet terrariums suits it best

Flowers are large for the plant size and white with large amount of red blotching throughout the flowers

warm environments

so the veins contrast nicely

Available plants are rooted and will have one leaf plus a new lead

This one is somewhat temperature tolerant

this species is much more easy to grow than its very touchy cousins doing well in intermediate to warm temps with high humidity
