Native to the Andes region of Ecuador, this Goeppertia would grow underneath the canopies of tropical rainforests. Indigenous peoples were known to use the leaves to make baskets. As a houseplant, the Goeppertia veitchiana is prized for its glossy, green foliage that has striking green stripes, as well as purple undersides.

Loves- Semi-shade is best, no direct sunlight. Needs high humidity. Water regularly through spring-autumn and reduce in winter, allowing the soil to dry out a little.
