    Need first-hand culture advice for this little species--light, temperature and watering.

    I would love to hear from someone who has actual growing experience with this species. Thanks.

    Tom, if you send me a piece, I will bloom it and then write up some cultural stuff for you?

    Really though, I cant help. Sorry.

    update

    I am still not sure about its culture, but for the last four months, I have been growing this species on the cool side of intermediate, shady, slightly dry out between waterings. The new growths will rot if the condition is too wet. Very similar culture to the one for Dresslerella pilosissima.

    First flower on this tiny plant. flower is about 0.3" long.
