Cannot remember type of orchid.

[BrassavolaStars]

Hello all,

I had a memory of a kind of miniature orchid that was related to miltoniopsis but I cannot remember its name.

I remember there being some kind of miltoniopsis adjacent miniature with smallish, white flowers that was popular at one point.

Does anyone know what I might be talking about?

Miltoniopsis santanaei?

I don't think that one is it, though that one is nice. I remember it being a kind of one-off genus related to Oncidiums that looked like Miltoniopsis phalaenopsis. I remember it being something that made sprays of white flowers. Maybe it had a name that started with Mytsa or Mycro or something like that?

I don't think this is what you are looking for, but Ionocidium Popcorn maybe? It's in the Oncidium group and makes sprays of white flowers.

Twinkle? That's the only tiny white oncidium-like orchid I can think of.

are you talking a type of miltonopsis or something else? i always got miltonia confused with miltonopsis are you thinking of that?

Capanemia superflua or another Capanemia? Clusters of white flowers. Or Osmoglossum puchellum? Not clusters, but small white fragrant flowers.

Notilya albida or another Notilya? A Rodriguezia?

I looked through Orchdiwiz filtering on Oncidium tribe, and looked for small white flowers. So an unscientific "eyeball" search.

I think it might have been a Rodriguezia of some sort. That name is sounding familiar. Maybe I only dreamed about it though . I remember it being something billed as being like a miltoniopsis, but easier and smaller. Maybe it was Capanemia micromera. I just remember the flowers being more like mini pansies.

The mini-pansies sounds more like Rodriguezia. Capanemia tend to be pure white. Here is Rodriguezia decora, some other species of the genus might be closer to what you remember.

Was it a Tolumnia?
