Epi. Conopseum
From what I've read, this plant is native from Mexico all the way to southern North Carolina, making it the hardiest epiphytic orchid. I got mine from a live oak log destined for the shredder. The resurrection fern in which it shares a relationship with has since died and now the plant has declined severely. I fear this is its last bloom for me. Shame too, because it is slightly fragrant and the blooms are neat to look at. BTW each flower is the size of your pinkie nail.
ps: sorry so blurry, hard to focus close up with my cam!

Hope she makes it. Very nice plant.
