What a cool Orchid. It sort of reminds me of a sprig of Rosemary with cute little orchid flowers.

Rosie,
What a lovely description. I think you summed up the sort of charm it has very nicely. I don't love all of the Dichaeas (yet) but this one had a very special charm.

Isn't this also sold as Dichaea trulla?

It sure looks the same to me... I don't find any other reference to Dichaea caliculata in a quick Internet search, and D. trulla is very similar to what I photographed... I just went with what was on the label, I'd be hesitant to say that the two were conspecific or that the plant was mislabeled. I would say that if I were looking for one that looked like rosemary, either one would do the job! :)

Pretty thing either way!

Actually, it belongs in my terrarium.:lol:Thank you for the fix!
