In our nursery we have various forms of one plant. Plants are living beings and so they are sometimes different. Variations in color and size are therefore possible.

The pictures shown with our products are sample pictures. These photos give a true picture of what the plant may look like when properly cared for. The specifications are leading for the plant received. Please read the characteristics carefully before ordering.

What are sample images?

We have an extremely large, extensive assortment with thousands of plants. In addition, because specific plants change in shape, color and size on a weekly basis, it is impossible for our small team to capture all specific plants. Each plant grows in a unique way, so it is perfectly normal that there may be differences in color, shape and size.

But because we do want to communicate clearly to you what to expect with a product, we have specifications for each plant that will give you a clear picture of what to expect.

It is therefore rare that you will receive the exact plant shown in the picture. If this is the case, it will be explicitly mentioned in the product description. Our goal is to ensure that you have a pleasant, green shopping experience and that you can shop with us worry-free.

For people who like to browse among the plants, we have a physical store. Check the contact page for opening hours and more info.

Description

The Anoectochilus albolineatus variegata is one of the most enchanting varieties within jewel orchids. This particular form combines the distinctive, sparkling leaf veins of Anoectochilus with subtle, cream to white-yellow variegation along the leaf margins. A visual highlight for any lover of foliage plants and tropical curiosities.

Unlike most flowering houseplants, this species is all about the leaves - and they are truly spectacular.

Origin

This species is native to Southeast Asia, where it grows in the humus-rich soil of moist, shady tropical forests. There it develops as a terrestrial orchid under consistently warm and wet conditions. In culture, the variegate form is rare and loved by collectors of jewel orchids because of its unique leaf patterns and multi-colored tissue.

Characteristics

The leaves are oval to slightly oblong in shape and velvety in texture. Dark green forms the basic color, in which a network of silvery veins sparkles like gold dust under the light. Variegation appears as pale yellow or cream-colored margins or stripes, which are slightly different on each plant.
The plant stays low and grows with short internodes, giving it a compact, dense appearance. Flowering is modest and consists of small, whitish flowers on an ascending stem - decorative, but certainly not the main attraction.

Care

Light

Bright, indirect light or partial shade. Avoid direct sunlight, which can damage delicate leaves. Ideal for growing under grow lights or in a shaded side of a plant stand.

Temperature

Between 20-26 °C during the day, with a slight drop at night. Protect from drafts and sudden temperature changes. No cold lower limits below 16 °C.

Substrate

Aerated, moisture retaining and rich in organic matter. Ideal is a mix of fine sphagnum, perlite, coconut fiber and leaf compost. Suitable for pot culture or terrarium with soil heat.

Humidity

70-90%. This species desires consistently high humidity. A closed cabinet or terrarium with air circulation is ideal.

Nutrition

Lightly fertilize during active growth (spring to fall) with a dilute foliar plant food (¼ strength). In winter only occasionally during visible growth.

Watering

Use demineralized water or rainwater. Keep the substrate evenly slightly moist, but avoid getting soggy. Drought can quickly lead to leaf damage.

Bloom

Flowering appears in the cooler months on an erect stem. The small, dainty flowers are white to beige, and decorative - but the foliage remains the main accent.
