Lepidaploa proctorii, with no widely recognized common name, is a perennial herb native to the montane rainforests of Puerto Rico. This species is typically found in the understory of these lush forests, where it thrives in the humid and shaded conditions. Lepidaploa proctorii is characterized by its erect stems and clusters of small, blue to violet flowers that bloom throughout the year, depending on the local climate. The flowers are modest in size but can be quite attractive when viewed up close.

In cultivation, Lepidaploa proctorii is not commonly found, but it could be valued for its unique flowers and as a conversation piece due to its rarity in gardens. It would likely require conditions that mimic its native habitat, such as consistently moist, well-draining soil, and partial to full shade. While not widely cultivated, it could be of interest to collectors of rare plants or those looking to create a tropical or rainforest-themed garden. There is limited information on potential problems with the plant, but as with many rainforest natives, it could be susceptible to root rot if overwatered or planted in poorly draining soils. It is also likely to be sensitive to cold temperatures and would need protection from frost.CC BY-SA 4.0
