Telipogon asuayanus Rchb. f. 1877

Common Name

Flower Size

Found in Ecuador at elevations around 2800 meters as a cold growing epiphyte. This species dies back after blooming and takes a rest and will reappear in the next growing season, so do not discard until you are sure that it is dead.

Cited as a synonym of T tessellatus, I have kept them separate following Kew.
