Acronia (Pleurothallis) penelops

Wow, glad you posted that plant shot. I would never have guessed what the whole plant looked like from those flowers.

It's quite an unusual one with those long curved leaves with the flowers coming from them. Really cool.

The Acronias are fantastic. Many of them would make nice house plants even without flowers. They range from 2" tall to almost four feet. I photographed one of the latter today. It was very very heavy.
