Trichosalpinx rotundata
Trichosalpinx rotundata - cute miniature orchid, requires shady location and constant moist with high humidity. Blooming on the bottom of the round shaped leaves.

Many thanks, I love this one's growing habit, it is like the plant is PROTECTING the blooms from being seen by strangers, so cute:-)

Flowering from the underside of the leaf; makes one wonder, about what kind of pollinator this plant would attract?

Fantastic! Beautiful flowers and I like the look of the plant even if it wasn't in bloom.
