    Sarcochilus olivaceus is a miniature species found in Queensland and New South Wales Australia. This plant is mounted on a piece of cork bark with no moss/substrate for moisture, however, it does receive daily waterings. To give you an idea of size, the plant across is only about 3 inches. The blooms are approximately 3/4 of an inch in diameter and have a light lemony fragrance.
