Restrepia antennifera and sanguinea
Here are a couple of Restrepia blooming in the greenhouse now. The R. antennifera has several flowers about to open. I'll take another pic when it's all in bloom
Second pic is R. sanguinea. It's a beautiful deep red color.

Thanks Tommy! The sanguinea blooms several times during the year. R. antennifera only blooms in the Spring. These are both pretty big flowers (2"+) for Restrepia

Thank you Rosie, Kim, and Sonya. I appreciate the views and comments.
Tindo, I have several Restrepia sanguinea plants if you are interested. For that matter, several R. antennifera, trichoglossa (striped), elegans.

Thanks but as of now I just haven't got any space. Maybe in the future if I build another terarium.
