Default Pleurothallis truncata

Double spikes on each leaf that's blooming! There appear to be more inflorescence on the way on other leaves.

This shot is panned out a bit to give a view of the whole inflorescence



This is a closeup of the little flowers

The plant is "leggy" with stalks about 8" long and the leaf is about 6" or so. As it gets fuller it will probably gain a bit more height and the leaves will get a little longer. This one is considered a medium-large Pleurothallis. The flower color is really vibrant and the inflorescence is 4 inches in length.

This one is awesome! I got niveoglobula and I am not crazy about those tiny dots blooms, but this one rocks, long spikes and awesome color. Must look for one!

They certainly are nice and long lasting. Even when this one was very young it bloomed small spikes. I'm looking forward to next year to see how it does.
