I agree, I like the cuprea as well as the chocoensis. I wonder if they come from the Choco region of Colombia? Anyhow, I also read that Restripias are the most warm tolerant of the Pluerothalids, and small!

The Choco region is exactly where it comes from. Isn't a cool little thing? There are quite a lot of Restrepias that are warmth tolerant. Many are warm to cool growers. Really great little plants!

Ooo, Terri! Good choice! Maxillaria tenuifolia, I'd go for that one as well. What a cute little thing - and BONUS, really nice scent!

The Choco region is known for its heat and humidity. Blahhh.
