Jul. 25, 2015 [update]: The Pomatocalpa latifolia is blooming and the flowers are super tiny!

May 16, 2015 [update]: The Malleola dentifera is in bloom and definitely “turning heads” when people see the pictures since no one’s heard of this genus/species before.

Apr. 18, 2015: It’s been a while since we got anything from The Orchid Works what with the crazy Michigan weather and all. But as it starts to become quite nice outside, the temptation of the weekly plant lists we get from them got more difficult to resist. They still send out amazing plants!

Maxillaria reichenheimiana

We lost the rescue one we got from Larry’s Orchids (story in this post) a few months back but we wanted to try again.

Pomatocalpa latifolia

(picture from Internet) We tend to be attracted to odd genera with curious-looking flowers

Phal. parishii x sib

This was actually the plant the started the decision to send in an order again after a while. We’re so glad we did! So cute!

(picture from Internet) Another one of those odd genera with interesting flowers! 

Trichocentrum lanceanum
