Ludisia sp. 'Jewel Orchid'
'Jewel Orchid' is a terrestrial, shade-loving orchid, native to Southeast Asia, and prized for its dramatic leaves rather than its small, fragrant white flowers. Leaves are velvety, dark maroon with vibrant red or gold pinstripe veins. Flowers appear on upright winter spikes. Terrestrial and succulent, it has creeping stems that root along the ground and can grow about 6–12 inches high. Ludisia sp.naturally grows on the forest floor, requiring high humidity and low-to-medium indirect light. Prefers consistently moist, well-draining soil. It is considered one of the easiest orchids to grow indoors and is popular as a terrarium plant or as a houseplant in a shallow, wide pot. (Pot size: 6")
