Salpistele brunnea
This is quickly becoming one of my favorite miniature orchids. It has been blooming continuously for months and I keep wondering just if and when the flower stalks will stop growing. It also seems pretty tolerant of warm temperatures and doesn't miss a beat in the summer when it's tough to keep the terrarium cool.
I'm thinking of getting Salpistele dressleri, too. Anyone else grow these? http://i1360.photobucket.com/albums/...psuoguqyku.jpg Something pollinated it... http://i1360.photobucket.com/albums/...pswuhdvz11.jpg |
Oooh, this is cool. I've not seen this mini before and the bloom is awesome! Very nice little plant. I would think you must have had a visitor at some point to have pollinated it. Pretty exciting. I need to go check out Salpistele, may need one of these.

Cute!

Oh great, another for my wish list. Thanks a lot, buddy.
Just kidding, that's really pretty! I want one. |
Cute little fella. You had better look into flasking that baby.
|
This one is great! always wanted one but doubted it's ability to deal with warmth...
Lucky you, you're near JLorchids... if I were in your neck of woods I'd have most of their catalog in a heartbeat... |
u bada, it's a blessing (for my collection) and a curse (for my wallet) being so close to J&L. They have a wonderful selection and are so helpful.
|
I have never heard of this genus or this plant. Nice job and thanks for sharing!
