Goeppertia annae

Goeppertia annae is a prayer plant of the Atlantic Forest of south-eastern Brazil, described by Kennedy and Braga in the 2000s and still known from very few collections. Unlike its Amazonian relatives it sees cool, dry winter nights down to about 14 C, which makes it forgiving of a temperate house as long as humidity is kept up.
