Goeppertia yoshida-arnsiae
Goeppertia yoshida-arnsiae is a recently described (2016) prayer-plant of the northern Atlantic forest of Brazil, recorded mainly on the coastal lowlands of Pernambuco and Bahia. Its home is warm all year with a wet autumn and winter and a drier, hotter spring, so at home it wants shade, warmth and moderate humidity with a short drier spell rather than a cold rest.
Where it grows wild
Understory herb of lowland Atlantic rainforest and its brejo remnants in north-eastern Brazil, growing in leaf litter on shaded, damp forest floor. The coastal records dominate; an inland record at 840 m in western Bahia is an outlier.
Recorded at 0 to 840 m, median at sea level; most records are coastal lowland below 150 m.
