The Leptotes bicolor is a delightful miniature orchid species from South America's Atlantic Forest, producing 2-3cm sweetly vanilla-scented flowers in late winter. This compact plant (8-15cm) thrives when mounted on cork or tree fern in bright, humid conditions (20-28°C summer temperatures, 60-80% humidity). Unlike many miniature orchids, it tolerates cool winter periods (12-16°C nights) and actually benefits from a slight dry rest before flowering. The charming white and violet-pink blooms emerge from the base of its cylindrical pseudobulbs, creating a striking display against the miniature foliage. While uncommon in mass markets, its easy culture and delightful fragrance make it perfect for terrariums or small-space growers.
