Today we have May 1. and here is the new thread for the month.
I am starting up by showing two Orchid species with the tiniest blooms.
I enjoy Orchids with distichous growth like this Dendrobium distichum, they look interesting also when not in bloom. This plants looks to me a lot like its larger Cousin, the Dendrobium anceps, but the tiny blooms are terminal.
The blooms are pin-head size!
Restrepia blooms look more like something one might swat than a "typical" gorgeous Orchid bloom. This Restrepia antennifera is an easy, clumping grower with some blooms usually open in the morning. Once in a while I find a little cluster on the floor and start up another basket (coconut shells are perfect) or simply stick it back into the top of the basket.
