Goeppertia nobilis

Goeppertia nobilis is a Brazilian prayer plant known only from Karl Koch's nineteenth-century description of cultivated material; it was moved to Goeppertia in 2012 and has no wild records in GBIF. Grow it as a warm, shaded, humid-forest understory Goeppertia from Brazil and expect no species-specific guidance beyond that.
