The Trichocentrum albococcineum is an orchid native to the tropical forests of Central America, renowned for its exotic beauty and its rarity. It stands out for its vibrant orange-red flowers, adorned with delicate white details at the centre, creating a spectacular contrast; its slightly undulating petals and sepals add a touch of sophistication. Its stiff, leathery leaves give it a robust and elegant bearing.

Standard-sized and grown potted, it asks for a little experience. It wants medium light, intermediate conditions, medium humidity and watering spaced out, letting the mix dry in between.
