Cryptocentrum Standleyi
 

Hi all;

An interesting miniature flowered for me a week ago for the first time ,and I'd like to share the photo with you.
Its Cryptocentrum Standleyi (my determination),a tiny little "hedgehog" of a plant with interesting flowers.
The whole genus is interesting,being one of the few representatives of an almost totally old world family which includes the Angreacums,Aerangis etc.
This species has a "hidden" spur that is stuck under the ovary,and is not visible unless the flower is bent back.
Its from Ecuador,mid elevations (around 500meters).
Enjoy

Miniatures don't give you a whole lot to look at but they sure are the most interesting plants. Seeing your plant is a first time experience for me and I thank you for posting the picture. It has a very healthy appearance and the flower is, of course, very unique.
