Base leaf colour: deep velvety maroon to dark chocolate-brown.
Veins: bold, pinkish-red to copper stripes that run lengthwise along each leaf.

General Appearance:
Growth form: creeping, branching stems that form dense clusters over time.
Leaf shape and texture: elongated oval leaves, velvety and smooth to the touch.
Size and habit: compact and low-growing, generally reaching 10–15 cm tall, making it an excellent choice for terrariums, dish gardens, and shaded interiors.

Distinguishing Features:
‘Mascot’ is a highly decorative variety of Ludisia, distinguished by its darker leaf tone and striking contrast of reddish veins.
Unlike many orchids grown primarily for flowers, this variety is prized for its evergreen, richly patterned foliage that remains attractive year-round.
Its ease of care and vibrant vein coloration make it a standout among jewel orchids for collectors and beginners alike.
