Sarcochilus falcatus
Bought this adult sized plant in spike, now mounted on an eucalypt branch.

It's only just been mounted so not that interesting. Will take a photo when it flowers again next year and the root system is established. |

If you're feeling adventuresome...you might use the pollen to try pollinating a Phalaenopsis or two...or ten. It would be great to see more Sarconopsis around.
Can you grow the common Phalaenopsis hybrids outside year around in Sydney? We can't here in Los Angeles. But Sarcochilus thrives here...and maybe some Sarconopsis would as well.

Thanks epiphyte78 fascinating idea! Will try that when I can get my mini phal hybrids in synchronous flowering with the sarcs. I have not had much luck with phal hybrids outdoors.
