Platystele stenostachy *MINI*
The flowers on this one are so tiny even I can barely see it. THis plant is a pleasure solely for the foliage!

Platystele stenostachya
If your images are digital, you must have a way better camera than I do. Mine are 35mm, with 4x, 2x, and 1x close-up lenses stacked; then I scanned the prints. Then I had to shrink them to fit the specs of this forum...
Perfect little flowers, though, if you can magnify them enough to see! I guess these are 'specimen' sized.
Regards - Nancy

Tin,
I think in that second photograph that there is a seedling Platystele stenostachya... if you can keep that moss happy, that also means you're keeping that Platystele happy... looking really good Tin!

That is a great looking plant - even if it is a *MINI*!  ....not really my thing but IMPRESSIVE no less!
Cheryl not sure if this helps.......each camera is different. I set my camera to auto macro which allows the camer to be as close as 1 3/16 inches away from the plant. That and I brace my arm, because I don't have tripod either. |
