I won this plant on eBay in about 2006. Since then I have almost killed it and then revived it twice. Its doing great now. I love these mini-antelope type Dens.

Thanks, it looks to me a lot like Pixie Princess which is fairly available. It is a little different though.

I love it!! Antelope types are so gorgeous and I'm dying to get some, but they are so incredibly hard to find over here.

They are hard to find here too. You can find larger antelope types, but the ones where the plants stay small and they get a zillion little flowers are very hard to find.

Gorgeous. I love the antelope types as well.

I have a NoID Phal type which shows features of the antelope shape flowers so must have some in it's background, but I would love to find one with the true flower shape of this type.
