Help! - ID guatemalan orchid
 

I'm forwarding this on for a friend. This plant was photographed in
guatemela; "the leaves were an inch and the flowers were little
thumbnail size and fragrant". No pseudobulbs were visible.

Any ideas? I though it looked similar to laelias, but then so many
things do.

Good go, Wendy. What held me back was the long, unbranched growth. Mine
grows as a mat.

Purely accidental Tennis, I love to research, Googled "Guatemala Orchids" &
found it in one of J. Pfahls pages.
IOSPE. Also bollixed the spelling a bit!

Thanks Gary, you know as I was searching I pulled a name from the back of my
mind (wendlandii) but couldn't
remember the genus. There are only two I think? I would have found it in a
blink on IOSPE
Yes I think sometimes these little guys do better horizontally as well.
