It grows as a
epiphyte in nature, but in peat in the window. I will raise the
caudex over the next couple of years.

This member of the Ericaceae family was given this name by Sleumer in 1939. It's
found as an epiphyte on the Himalayan foothills. It gets
water all
year round and some sun between the trees. The caudex will grow to 15 centimetres, the
stems to 70 centimetres. The flowers are pink, and
reproduction by cuttings are also possible. I got one from Eberdingen in
2003.
It needs
a rather high
air humidity.
