Bifrenaria aureofulva is a rare and spectacular orchid native to Brazil, prized by collectors for its elegant flowering and its subtle fragrance. It produces large golden yellow flowers with coppery shades, often flecked with orange highlights, which contrast with its glossy green foliage. It grows naturally in the humid forests of Brazil, at medium altitude.
Ideal for anyone after an orchid that is exotic, beautiful and relatively easy to care for, it flowers mainly in spring and summer, offering exceptional and long-lasting decorative appeal.

Compact, it asks for a little experience. It wants medium light, intermediate conditions, medium humidity and semi-dry watering. Blooming in spring. Its flowers are fragrant.
