An oldie but goodie in my collection.

Nice. I've had lockhartias in bloom almost year round so I tend to ignore [my] single flowers. I need to update my culture so they bloom more profusely. How are you growing, mounted pendantly or potted, what media...???

Mine is mounted on a fern-root plaque. It blooms from spring to fall, taking a break during the winters.

Totally wild!

New one to me. Cool. Gotta love the long blooming period.

 

[SlipperFan]

Interesting. It looks a lot like an oncidium.

How big is this flower Todd?

I have one that is only tentatively identified with flowers only a few millimeters wide

(Good for magnifying glass appreciation). The flowers are surprisingly complex for being so tiny.

 

[toddybear]

The flowers are close to an inch in length.
