Zygostates alleniana
Z. alleniana--I got this little guy almost a year ago. It is a first time bloomer for me. The flower is about 0.3" and they should be long lasting.

It is not very difficult but I won't say easy either. You need to be careful with the moisture and light level for this little species. It is an intermediate grower.

Another great one Tom. This one kind of reminds of Podangis dactyloceras (I think I spelled that wrong) with its crysaline, almost clear flowers.

Please, I beg you, tell me where you got it! I had one years ago, and have been searching for this plant for months!

Mine came from a private collector. I think he imported this species from a Brazilian grower.
