Acronia radula
Full plant. Note the way the leaves tend to nod.

Acronia radula

(CHW8_2009JBIGIO08)
Synonym Pleurothallis radula. Published by Luer in 2005. An intermediate growing medium sized epiphyte from Costa Rica at approximately 6230 feet (1900 meters). This species has leaves up to 5-6" on petioles of 8" and flowers are up to 3/4" fully opened. The flowers emerge from the base of the leaf from a papery sheath in winter. The mature leaves are heart shape and very attractive so it makes a nice specimen when not in flower.

I have this plant mounted on cork and I keep it moist at all times. It gets about 500 foot candles of light and is 70F/55F in winter and 85F/60F in the summer. It could probably be kept a bit cooler in the winter and may need more shade in the summer.
