That's cute, Pat

I've never heard of that genus before

How big are the blooms? Is it fragrant?

Sue,

Yep, it's a very uncommon genus, allied closely to Epidendrum (except a bit uglier looking!). The blooms are tiny, possibly smaller than a dime. I didn't detect any fragrance at all, but it sure attracted some pollinator!

Oooh...Yeah, very neat! Looks like someone stuck terete leaves on a Dendro. I think the blooms are quite beautiful. Thanks for sharing this one!
