Platystele stenostachya

Hi all,

Here is a reliable bloomer. Infact, it is always in bloom, rarely out of bloom. The flowers are a challenge to photograph since they are no more than 1.5 millimeters in length from sepal to sepal. Still, on occasion it puts on a show with hundreds of them, and there are so many that it looks really nice.

I have a piece of this as well. Sweet little thing, and you're right - almost impossible to photograph! Thanks for the photos.

You took a very nice Photo of the flower!
When mine first bloomed, I had to go hunting for my magnifying glass. It is a cute little orchid, though.

Easily one of my favorites because the blooms are so so tiny. It is easy to grow, mine has grown a lot in the last year and it blooms almost nonstop.

Your pictures are amazing, I don't think people realize just how tiny these blooms are. They are easily missed at times. Thank you for sharing!

It's adorable.
