Bulbophyllum elisae
 

A much less contentious little plant - commonly called the "pineapple orchid".
It followed me home from a nursery a couple of years ago, and this is its first
blooming. Given the way the flowers present themselves, I simply could not get
the classic photo looking into the bloom.

Is that a 2x4 it's mounted on?

Mark, the plant is back on the shelves - and it's raining, yea!!! But I would
guess the mount is about 2" x 6".

I'm always on the lookout for interesting things to mount orchids on but
getting some of the stuff to hang right is a challenge. I'm going to try
your dimension lumber a try.

Thanks for posting a picture of the whole plant. Some of us that are not
able to attend large orchid shows benefit from pictures like yours to help
stir the creative juices.

Mark, showing the whole plant is a hobby horse of mine. With many of our native
species growth habit differences help with id.
