Pleurothallis bogarinii

A Costa Rican Pleurothallis known from only a couple of wild records on the Caribbean slope of the Central Volcanic Range. Grow it like other wet-forest pleurothallids: shade, constant moisture, high humidity, gentle airflow and no dry season.

Where it grows wild

Recorded in very wet premontane forest on the Caribbean side of the Central Volcanic Range. Like most of the genus it is presumably an epiphyte on mossy trunks and branches in the shaded mid-canopy.

Records lack elevations; the two climate sites sit at about 550 and 900 m, and the species may reach higher.
