Orchids in Bloom: Stelis ciliolata

I think that this has got to be my favorite of everything you posted today! :drool: I'm in love with it! Seeing the fuzz,it makes me think of that fuzzy toilet bowl orchid that I remember you posting quite a while back.

Plants like these are the reason some of us are nuts about species. There are so many different and unusual plants out there.

absolutely STUNNING. stellis and pleuro's are just such attractive little critters.... the flowers are surely small but just to stunning to ignore.....

unique, wacky, weird, ugly, different, they are all just amazing.....

good growing and thanks for sharing

Thanks, Niven. This actually has flowers that are larger than most Stelis - you don't need a magnifying glass to see them. They're about 1.5 cm.

Seriously cute, love the fringe. Good growing

Thanks, neighbor.

Lovely blooms. Really like how the black backdrop makes the white fringe POP!

Beautiful flower. The texture and form is very interesting...but I just love that kind of coloring

Thanks, Judi and Bud.
