This little guy is finally fully opened. The color is very hard to catch w/o using flash...I apologize for the "creative" backgrounds...no black cloth in my camera bag.
Enjoy!

I just had to find out it's lineage ...
Sophronitis Sato = Sophronitis cernua x Sophronitis Orpetii
Soph. Orpetii = Soph. pumila x Soph. coccinea
(Soph. pumila is syn to Laelia pumila .. so that is where the Sl. comes from .. )
Wow beautiful color! I really like the even form of this one - how small is it?
The entire plant is about 4" tall; it is definately a mini. Unfortunately I had no luck getting it to bloom under lights when I grew that way...though in the GH it has bloomed faithfully every spring.
