ORIGIN: This is a freeflowering, miniature, hot to cool growing epiphytic species with a short stem carrying 2 to 10 linear, channeled, fleshy, spotted leaves that blooms in the spring on a very slender, 3 to 5 [6 to 12] long, fractiflex, racemose, inflorescence that is generally shorter than the leaves, with a few [2 to 10], very fragrant flowers, and is found in Australia and New Caledonia in gullies on small trees and often on fine twigs, rarely on branches and trunks in rain forest areas at elevations up to 800 meters.
DESCRIPTION: This is a free-flowering, miniature, hot to cool growing epiphytic species with a short stem carrying 2 to 10 linear, channeled, fleshy, spotted leaves that blooms in the spring on a very slender, 3 to 5 [6 to 12] long, fractiflex, racemose, inflorescence that is generally shorter than the leaves, with a few [2 to 10], very fragrant flowers, and is found in Australia and New Caledonia in gullies on small trees and often on fine twigs, rarely on branches and trunks in rain forest areas at elevations up to 800 meters. They appreciate an even, fertilizing and watering schedule as flowering and growth continue year round with cold to warm temperatures and moderate light and mounting to a small twig seems to work best..
FLOWER SIZE: Less than 1/2 inch [0.06 to 1.1 cm]
