    I really like this group of Pleurothallids that produce the flowers near the end of the leaf. This species is always in bloom for me. It is about 8 inches tall, grown in a cool greenhouse in fairly deep shade. I believe this one can be grown a bit warmer.

    Very interesting. I don't believe I've heard of that before.
