Acampe rigida
orchids
Description
Acampe rigida is an epiphytic orchid known for its unique growth habit and attractive flowers. The plant is characterized by its thick, stiff leaves, hence its name 'rigida'. The leaves are usually arranged in a fan-like manner. The flowers are small, typically with a range of colors from yellow to brown or orange, and often with distinct patterns. Acampe rigida thrives in warm, humid environments and prefers bright, indirect light. A well-draining growing medium, such as a mix of bark and moss, is essential. Watering should be done when the medium is almost dry. Providing adequate air circulation is important for its health. Fertilization is recommended during the growing season to encourage flowering, which can be an exquisite display.
