Amitostigma keiskei
Googled, and found somebody posted pics of the same plants. I posted these somewhere before, but was not able to find the original images. So I recopied and edited the pics.
First one is 'Sakigake' HCC/AOS which is unfortunately dead or missing.
Second and third ones are 'Sakurabito' AM/AOS.
The last one is 'Gandharva' AM/AOS.
I did not take any pics last year or last year. I did get an HCC last month, though.

Wow, these are cute. I'm originally from Japan, but I didn't know about this plant. Are they easy to grow? Looks like you are using 100% pumice in paper pots. Amazing variation. Is the variation from artificial selection or natural/regional variation?

They are not "difficult" like some terrrestrials, but I am not sure if I would call "easy." It was a mixture of pumice and coco peat, and I use different medium now.

I missed them then as well. Those are adorable! Where did you obtain them? (If you ever have enough for a plant trade, drop me a pm.)

I got them from Japan, so that won't help. I may have some "extra" or whatever you call, but I'd rather share them with my fellow members of the study group on these orchids ( Amitostigma keiskei, A. lepidum, and Ponerorchis graminifolia, etc.) that I started this year. If the study group is successful, and there is enough interest, we may expand. Will see. I did have A. lepidum tuberoids for auction, though.
