Restrepia (reh-STREP-ee-ah) has been one of the genera most confusing to botanists for many years.  Current thinking accepts nearly 50 species distributed primarily in the Andes with some into Central America.  Named in honor of Don Jose Restrepo, an investigator of Colombian flora, these showy species are recognized by the large striped or spotted synsepal (fused lateral sepals), which may be white, yellow, rose, purple, orange or tan with red, brown or purple pigmentation.  The tufted plants with leathery leaves and white sheathed stems often produce keikis making propagation easy for the grower.  In fact, it is possible to grow plants from the axils of leaf cuttings.  In cultivation, Restrepias seem to handle brighter light, drier conditions and warmer temperatures than most other Pleurothallids.

    These plants have not yet been positively identified.
