Default Dichaea I think?
I got this from a friend, it has very tiny yellow blossoms. I believe it is a Dichaea of some sort? It hasn't bloomed in years- but apparently our warm winter (I'm in Tampa Florida) finally stimulated blooming. Any other ideas of exactly what it is would be greatly appreciated.[IMG]<a href="http://s210.photobucket.com/albums/bb172/catthom3/orchids%20from%20yard/?action=view&amp;current=Verytinyorchid.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb172/catthom3/orchids%20from%20yard/Verytinyorchid.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>[/IMG]

I believe that is Dendrobium anceps.

Flower shape is the giveaway here.
It was easy to rule out Dichaea - you've grown it in Tampa for years and it's not dead!

It was mostly a joke, but I have had no luck with them in so. FL. I can keep some going for a while, but they eventually croak. Since there are more than 100 species of Dichaea, I'm sure there are a few that would do OK. No doubt we'll hear from those that have been wildly successful with them down here. (I hope we do.)

Yeah, dichaeas tend to be coldish-growers, and the blossoms are totally different.

Here is a Dichaea pupurea I grew (for a short while):
