Leptotes unicolor

[Djthomp28]

If you are looking for a floriferous miniature, this is a great one! It is about 2 inches tall. I grow it mounted on cork and allow it to dry between water.

can't go wrong with this mini and..... I used to grow almost all of the species in this genus at one time and I love them all! Great job! and good cultural advice. Good light is also needed for them IMO.

Nice, hardly ever see these. Thanks for sharing.

Used to see them all the time, now it is on my wish list and I can't find them anywhere... Will trade a dozen pohlitinocoi for one...

I purchased this from a local grower - Edgar Stehli of Windswept in Time. It has been a few years since I purchased it.

and when did you purchase it? Does the seller have a website? Are the flowers fragrant?

I was editing while you were asking your question. It has been 2-3 years since I purchased it. I was nosing around the greenhouse and found this one. Edgar always has interesting stuff in the greenhouse. The link to his facebook page is above here is his website: Windswept in Time

I reached out to Edgar, and he has a few Leptotes unicolor seedlings, which were recently mounted.
