Default Another Pleurothallid Oddity
Here's a plant formerly identified as Pleurothallis, now reclassified as Acronia - heart-shaped leaves and a succession of these odd flowers.

Whoa, that's something I haven't seen before! Kinda hard to tell which way is up on that one :-P! Do you treat it as you would any other pleuro?

Pretty much the same as others. It does get a bit taller than I like and sprawls a bit, but is tolerant of different temps, though its likes a bit of humidity.
