Ludisia discolor alba. A rare variation of the popular Ludisia discolor. Alba prefers even lower light than the usual jewel orchids, which makes it a great choice for under canopy plants where it’s difficult for your light to hit in your terrarium. A stunning foliage for the green lovers out there.⠀
Note: Treat the alba similar to a variegation in plants, avoid direct light, thus making this slightly trickier to care for than the regular form.
Ensure it has an airy growing substrate or try our jewel orchid soil mix to avoid root rot. It can do well in terrarium / vivarium.
