Amesiella LOC Snow White*and Dendrobium normanbyense
Dendrobium normanbyense (atroviolaceum pygmy): I got this from Andy's last March. It was one he picked out for me based on my conditions and what he thought I might like. When it arrived, it had a few fading, really pale yellow blooms on it. I wasn't super excited... But I am now!!! Wow! These are a lovely green that doesn't show up well in the pictures with a magenta lip. And so many!!! I would say it barely qualifies as a miniature. The canes are probably a little over 6", so it is one of the larger plants in my tank.
Amesiella LOC Snow White (minor x monticola): I just got this from LOC in August, so can't take full credit for the bloom (but I'm taking some, ok!) It has been in spike for at least 3 months. Worth the wait. I wasn't expecting the yellow in the middle. Also, the flower is around 2" across, so it is almost larger than the plant itself. I love the little tendril in the back, and there is another bud behind it.
