Default Trichopilia tortilis

Now blooming, this is a delightful flower on a tiny plant - no more than
4-5" in height, while the flower is almost as large as the plant. It can
bloom several times a year when really happy. In fact, as all the
trichopilias are small plants, the larger ones reaching only 1' or a bit
more in height, these miniatures and near-minis do well under lights and
take up very little space, making them ideal for those without a
greenhouse - or with!

Nice one Tennis. I am still waiting for my plant to flower but have
something to look forward to.
