Default Trias picta

Trias picta - I picked this one up from Sorella orchids last year and is a first time bloomer. I grow this intermediate and it appears there is another bud or two forming now as well The flower is about 1.5cm on a small growing plant wit ha 2cm bulb topped with a 6cm leaf.

This has become one of my favorites

I've never heard of this genus before either. It is beautiful, and you deserve a for growing it so well. I appreciate that you've broadened my knowledge base with your post.
