This is an amazing orchid...
it has a beautifull pink collor... and looks like a scarab with 2 antennas .... it's so cool and blooms all year... the plant is like a Masdevallia and this flower is about 1 -1.5 cm
Is very rarely... enjoy my little pink scarab

Wow Beto...that really is cool.  I hope that it doesn't feed like a scarab!
Congrats to you on growing such an interesting and unusual species.  Thanks for sharing it with us.
I looked it up on Orchid Wiz and noticed that they don't have a photo...yet. Your photos are really good. Maybe you should contact Alex and see if he'd like one for his program.  |

I agree, really nice photos and flowers. Do you have a photo of the entire plant? Thanks.

Really Cool! These flowers are really neat, and attractive, in my eyes. Thank you for sharing them. I am curious to see the whole plant as well, and if you have any culture tips to share, I would happy to hear those too!

No, I think is easy to grow....
It needs an intermediate temperature with shadow, I fertilized and watered weekly ....
The wonder of this plant is that allways is in bloom... |
