Barbasella australis
Due to the colour this guy always sneaks into bloom on me as you have to look closely.Not exactly a show stopper but a nice little specie.Not sure which section this little guy belongs in.

Awesome, Jane! Love it. I believe they are part of the Pleuro. alliance. That is quite a specimen you've got there. Nice work!

i can see how you could miss the flowers, cause of their greenish tint.

I grow it on cork hanging from a shelf in the greenhouse with others in good light ,Intermediate & it's outside from end of May 'til mid Sept. here on Long Island.The flowers are about3/4 to an inch in size but I haven't really measured them  .It also has growth on the other side of mount which is facing north. |

Not a show stopper  That is an awesome display and gret looking plant. I have just added my first Barbasella to my collection (can't remember which one though without running downstairs to look) and think I need more  |

The one I have came from J&L on a visit I made to thier greenhouse in December. I make trips up north a couple times a year and drive I-95 so J&L is a nice pitstop from the long 6 hour drive home |
