Meiracyllium trinasutum in bloom
 

Cool - hot growing dwarf epiphyte from southern Mexico, Guatemala, and El Salvador.

I've had this one a year - seems to be an easy going plant. Watered when the sphag on the mount is dry.

1/2" blooms - wonderful cinnamon fragrance!
2" leaves.

Thanks for looking :)

Awesome!

That is eye catching! I really like that color. Good growing!

Gorgeous, love those spots in the center!

Sweet.

Kim

Thanks everyone! :)

I've never seen this one before. The color on the blooms look really nice. Thanks for posting!

Beautiful little throat

Thank you! :)
I love the heart shaped lip and throat- and the vibrant color- as well as the wonderful fragrance!

Wow~ never heard of that name, but that color is just electric!!!

Lovely lip,like a heart and color.I like that it is scented.Perfect for mounting on a tree, if I get my hands on one.

Gorgeous, Sonya! I love this species.

I just love everything about this one Sonya, I have one too, and so hope it will bloom for me, the shape and the color of the blooms is awesome!

I agree with Sonya; I love ANY orchid with a sweet fragrance! It certainly looks healthy.....BettyE.

Interesting, I do like it, I've not heard of this genus before, I suspect it is not common in cultivation.

Thanks, all! :)

I had not heard of this one before, either - until I saw it for sale last year at the San Jose Orchid Expo (from Gold Country Orchids). It was in bud at the time, and being small, I asked about it ... learning it takes a wide range of temps, is fragrant (added to the small size), I thought I should have it ;)

Tommy - it seems to be an easy going plant, so I am sure yours will reward you with blooms without trouble ;)
