Amitostigma pinguicula

Usually a winter/spring bloomer. Like so many of my plants, this one was also confused by the warm spring.

I bougnt this several years ago from a grower who imported plants from Japan (pre-tsunami). I have not seen any more listings from this grower.

Looks tiny. What's the size of the leaves/flowers?

Actually, don't worry about it. Seems like this is a cool-growing terrestial: it would not last one summer with me in NY without AC

It's about 2 inches tall. with 3/4 inch long flowers. I grow it without AC but I do have it in an old freezer with the top off and a large copper insert that's about 1 foot deep to hold the plants. The freezer is on for a few hours a day to cool its roots. It works well for my cyps too. It was originally intended to reveive Disas, but that was not a success.
