Default Epidendrum longipetalum

An older picture and a newer one. The plant is a few inches tall, the spike about 12 inches and it flowers successively. The flowers are fairly small and as the name indicates have very long petals - the petals are the thread-like appendages hanging down on both sides of the lip.

Ron,
Another oddball! Very cool! I wonder what the function of the 'droopy dog ears' would be?!
