Distinctive and newly described species from Vietnam. The name reflects the jaw-dropping mix of raised olive green cones (bullae) on its foliage, with wide silvery stripes along the leaf veins. Stems and rhizomes are coverd with white bristles. During October to December, long flower stalks rise above the leaves, with small butter flowers, very stunning!
It is somewhat wet and heat-sensitive. Require higher light level than other spine leaf species from this region. Perform well in the almost-closed terrarium type culture. that suits so many of the other rainforest understory species. Recommend to add a roughly 10% ratio of limestone chips with the based potting medium.
Offered are starter plants, established in 4" pot
