Hi everyone - this one has just come out for me. It's the first flowering for the plant, and I'm quite pleased with it! Any criticisms of the flower welcome!

Very nice Dan. The only criticism I have is that it's not in my greenhouse!

Simply wonderful!

Very cool and nice color.

What was the source of this plant?

There is a lot of variation in the proportions of petals and dorsal sepal in this species. This one has relatively small petals and dorsal relative to the pouch.

Hi - thanks everyone for your comments!

I got the plant from a guy who comes over from his nursery in Thailand every 6 months to sell them in the UK - I've found his plants of great quality. The armeniacum I posted the other day was from him as well

Criticism welcome? I'm not about to criticize anyone who blooms micranthum.............Well done! Eric

Very well done..keep up the good work..

 

[NYEric]

You're doing very well; flowering parvi. species that are pretty difficult to bloom. Unless the pouch is HUMUNGOUS, the only criticism would be the relatively tiny dorsal and petals. Thanx for postin.

This is a gorgeous bloom. Can't really think of anything to criticize!

 

[biothanasis]
