With the moderating effects of the Caribbean Sea on the east and the Pacific Ocean on the west, Costa Rica is an area with varying degrees of humidity and is thus a habitat conducive to the growth of a number of diverse orchids.
Tänu sellele, et Costa Rica asub Kariibi mere ja Vaikse ookeani vahel, on sellel maal erineva niiskusega piirkondi, ja see tagab vajalikud tingimused eri liiki orhideede kasvuks.
