Thanks, Ezil, s.k, and Jane. I did not make a time lapse and wish I had, Jane.

Ron, this is an awesome species! Congrats on the blooming. How is the pod on the breve?
Also, the Scaph. and Zootrophion I got from you are both about to bloom! |

Thanks, Tindo. It is hard to realize how tiny this plant actually is. A quarter would cover it.

Great pictures Ron, and so tiny!
I saw a documentary recently which talked about Darwin's moth prediction for another in the Genus. Really cool stuff.

There's a video somewhere that shows the moth actually pollinating the flower. I think someone posted a link here on OB.

Yeah, this documentary showed it (in 3D... one of the few times I've been glad of hubby buying a 3D TV  ) Couldn't believe the length of that tongue! |

It is amazing, both the tongue and the video of the flower being pollinated.

Really lovely, Ron. May I ask how you're growing it? We got one of these in late 2011 but it has not flowered for us yet.
