Pleurothalis grobyi in new Erin pot
This little bugger just keeps on blooming...When I first saw the Erin pots, I knew that I wanted one for this little guy and just hoped that the flowers would stick around long enough for me to enjoy them in their new pot.
I like the way that the colors of the pot play off of the green/maroon plant and cream flowers! Thankfully he cooperated and kept sending out new spikes for me to enjoy!

WOW, that looks great!
This plant always intrigues me because of how tiny it is but I don't usually think "WOW, that looks great!" when it's mounted as they usually are.
Yours in this pot makes me rethink it!

These pots are really doing magic on the looks of your plants. Love this species by the way. You should try photographing it against some stones, mossy stones as background.

Thanks for the compliments. Given the heat that we've been having here in Fla, finding mossy stones might be hard for me to do, but I agree it would look nice as a background. I'll try and take some better photos, I just snapped these on the spur of the moment...

Totally awesome, Laura! I completely agree with Sue - that pot really makes the plant stand out. It transforms a cute plant into a spectacular plant!! Great job! (And now I don't feel so bad about missing out on that pot! It suits your plant like it was made for it!)
