Oh Boy! Those are so cute.

I've got that Lepanthopsis is sooooo on my wish list!

You'll LOVE that calura! I have one that just blooms all the time! REALLY pretty!

Sue see my comment on the other thread. Very nice.

It's so cute!! :faint: You need a magnifying glass to look at the blooms!

Wow...yeah, that Lepanthopsis is absolutely stunning! So elegant! Way to go, Sue!!

They look so nice and healthy. The Lepanthopsis is so tiny. Does it stay that smallish?? Sue
More for my wish list, Oh brother :evil:

Hi Gloria :)

I don't think it will get very big but Shannan may know more about it (she's had hers for a while):

The tiny little blooms on this are like perfect little stars...if you have a chance to get one... :Tup

Gloria, They do stay very small. Mine has little keikis growing out of the tops of the main leaves (effectively doubling its height) and it is still only about 3 inches tall.

The flowers are a really vibrant, amazing colour -and Sue desscribed them best: 'perfect little stars' - that's exactly what they are.

There is room in everyone's collection for one of these!

:D Yippieeeeee Thank you both ladies :D
I'm out of room and I need smaller growers. I love this one - gotta get me one. Sounds like a fun plant to grow to.
1 Question - how important is humidity? :hmm

Suzanne,

It may not be the smallest orchid I've seen...but it is sooooo teeny! :yikes: :biggrin:

Congrats to you and Laura on this little beauty! :Tup: I am also looking at growing more minis...so I may end up with one too. Thanks for the post!
