Platystele aurea Tillandsia creating a vividA neat miniature epiphyte from the Andean cloud forests, bearing solitary flowers on slender, wiry stems held above broad, elliptic leaves. The broad, rounded synsepalum contrasts with the smaller, acuminate dorsal sepal, while the tiny labelo displays distinctive dark spotting a refined and jewel like bloom for its diminutive size. Light: Bright indirect light with 5070% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which can scorch the broad, soft leaves.
