Lemmaphyllum microphyllum Fern
Large, well-established in a 1" or 3" net pot. The 3" pot plants have grown into balls the size of a cantaloupe! Most places on the internet sell it by the single strand. This hard-to-find fern is small-growing and highly suitable for terrariums, vivariums and as houseplants. The round, non-fertile leaves are approx 1/2 inch in diameter and the long, skinny fertile (spore) leaves are about 1.25” long. This plant is epiphytic, so it will do very well mounted with some sphagnum moss. It creeps nicely without being invasive and because of the long rhizome is easy to prune. Care: medium to high humidity, mild temps, and moderate-low light.

Epidendrum neoporpax
Epidendrum neoporpax. Well-established blooming size plant in a 3" net pot. We love this plant! It mats into a specimen in a short time. Flowers several times a year and we call it the "baboon butt" flower for obvious (to me :) reasons. This is a great orchid for vivariums and small growing spaces! Care: Easy to grow in moderately bright to partial shade conditions. Like to be mounted either vertically or horizontally. Moderate water all year.

Bulbophyllum trachyanthum
Well-established blooming size seedling plant in a 4" basket. These plants are ready for mounting or hanging baskets (either is preferable to a pot for adult plants). Very Limited!The flowers of this species are unusual, even for a Bulbophyllum! Each flower is almost 3" long from top to bottom. The maroon background is darkest at the top and highlighted by yellow spots (it resembles snakeskin to me) and slowly fades to white on the bottom sepals. It's beautiful and weird at the same time! Flowers in the winter.Care: Prefers cool-intermediate temps, Indirect light, and moderate year-round food and water.

Dockrillia toressae
Dockrillia (syn. Dendrobium) toressae. Well-established blooming-size plants mounted on madrone. These plants were mounted in the summer of 2020. A true miniature. This wonderful species from Australia has textured, succulent, alternating, tightly-packed leaves that turn red in high light. Over time, the plants form mats that completely colonize their mounts.Most people grow this species mainly for the leaves and growing habit. The tiny flowers are just a bonus. The long-lasting, almost transparent, yellowish-green flowers appear frequently throughout the year. The flowers are large relative to the size of the foliage (but they’re still tiny!) and are long-lasting.It’s a must-have for a collector of miniatures!Care: Dockrillias are famous for being super resilient orchids; this species is no exception! It can handle near-freezing cold and sweltering heat (It experiences both seasonally in its native habitat). It does best in cultivation with cool-warm temps, regular watering spring-fall with less in the winter, and bright indirect light.

Dendrobium elliotianum
Mature, mounted blooming size plants. We imported these plants 6 months ago but held on to them to ensure they were healthy and strong (they are!). These plants have flowered at the nursery and are currently producing new leaves, pseudobulbs, and roots. Small is an understatement when describing this species! These mature plants measure 1-2" top to bottom and produce tightly packed pseudobulbs with skinny leaves that are about 1“ long at maturity. Pseudobulbs lose their leaves after they mature and before they flower. Each mature, leafless pseudobulb will flower more than once. Produces 5-8 shirt button-sized, long-lasting, shiny white flowers with a purple lip. Blooms in succession in summer, and can produce several to more than 20 flowers at the same time once flowering occurs! When blooming, its brilliant pinkish-purple flowers are long lasting and fragrant. Fall-winter flowererCare: Intermediate-warm temps, bright indirect light, daily light misting, light fertilizer 2x/month when growing new roots or leaves.
