    This is my first bloom on my gargoyla, which I believe is quite a nice Lepanthes. The plant was purchased from Ecuagenera in March.

    Nice growing. I really like how the leaves change as they age.

    Thanks. I grow it intermediate. I am mostly subject to the weather because I do not using any cooling elements. The tanks run as low as 52F in the winter and 82F in the summer. This plant bloomed when the tank were about 64F to 74F. I would imagine it would do better a little cooler.
