    Flowers are 5mm wide. I bought this some years ago labeled Schoenorchis rosea, but I don't know if that is a valid name.

    It is the only plant of this that I have seen. I bought it from J & L about 9 years ago. It reminds me a lot of Schoen. juncifolia, but the plant is quite small. The whole plant here is probably 8- 10" long.

    Eric Hunt said that it may now be called Seidenfadiella rosea.

    The whole plant is only 8-10 inches! When I first looked at the pictures I thought it was a much larger plant

    Thanks for sharing Marni

    Very nice one, Marni. Like Tom In PA, I thought it would be a much bigger plant too, at least as big as the Schoenorchis juncifolia.

    It has a really heroic quality in the photo. In person, it seems wispy and delicate, a bit like spanish moss.

    Candace, unfortunately, I don't have any pieces. Some plants I don't mind taking pieces off of, this is one that I want to see become a specimen. You might check with J & L.

    I bought if from J & L Orchids in Connecticut 9 years ago. I don't see it on their list right now, but you might email and ask.

    Marni, my Schoenorchis juncifolia is going to bloom for the first time (woohoo) and I was poking around on the forum trying to learn more. I came across this thread and was wondering if you have confirmed that it is Seidenfadeniella rosea? Has it continued to thrive and bloom for you?

    Kelly, the correct name is S buddleiflora. And yes, it is still doing very well. I have gotten a couple of plants from Andy's Orchids but still not manage to set seed.

    Marni, I know this is an old thread but every time I see it my interest is piqued. Does this grow under the same conditions as S. juncifolia? I think I need to contact Andy. :cool: Any luck setting a pod yet?
