Pleurothallis crinita (Acianthera crinita)
Anyone here growing this one? I've done a search here and can't find anything, interested in your experience with this awesome little one. I recently won this on EBay (yeah!) don't have it yet but very excited about finding one finally.

What a really neat one! 
I don't grow this...just have the Lepanthes, Lepanthopsis and the one pleurotallis. Here is what I found...if it is any help at all....

Thank you Leafmite! There is not much information out there and I thought maybe a member had one. I bought this from Mountain Orchids and his growing information is pretty detailed so I think I'll be fine. I've purchased from them before, they have nice plants. It's a cool plant.

Shannon it is due to arrive today, not sure I am allowed to post pictures from vendors? It's a cutie.

I can tell you what Darrin told me about the plant. It's about three years old. Seed grown from selfing the mother plant. It's been out of flask about eighteen months and with good growing conditions should bloom in a year. I've counted around thirty leaves! It's cork mounted.
I like the strange weirdo plants as well as other minis, this one I've looked for a long time. It has cool blooms too. Pretty excited here. eBay is not my choice for buying orchids, I hate bidding and I detest waiting. I wait until the last minute and bid high, cross my fingers. I was surprised actually when I won. Pics later...

It has purple dots covering the leaves that are not showing in these lousy uploads. I'll try one more...
