Totally awesome mini species with 1/2" tightly clustering flattened bulbs that carry 2 tiny oval bluish grey-green leaves, single showy 1" flowers are wide open and very showy and are waxy snow white with a bright yellow callus on the lip. Reputation is difficult to grow but if you know its habitat it is easy to grow- treat it like a Laelia anceps- very bright and let dry between waterings, handles temperature extremes well but likes to cool down at night- sorry to most of you Floridians and fellow deep southerners.
a really terrific miniature of the Latourea section, 3" bulbs are swollen toward the top have 2 to 3 oval dark green 1" leaves with pointy tips, numerous wiry apical spikes each carry half a dozen long lasting 3/4" blooms, flat circular flowers are creamy white with pure white bi-lobed lip, puts on a great display, one of Andy's favorites
this attractive mini is named after its beautiful lip, cigar-shaped fat 3" pseudobulbs with bluish-green 2" leaves, 1- 1/2" flowers appear at random from leaf nodes on leafless canes, blooms throughout the year, sepals and petals are creamy white, broad bilobed lip is bright orange with a scarlet throat, easy grower
a super-miniature, 1" warty leaves and stems produce long-lasting funnel-shaped 1" brilliant, variable colored blooms that range from orange, red, purple, and pink with occasional bi-colored forms, the plant dwarfing flowers keep a pristine appearance for up to a whopping 8 months!!! difficult to grow but well worth the effort.
a charming pendant creeping miniature from the Pedilonum section, thick fleshy branching stems up to 6" covered rank-and-file with short pointy 1/2" leaves, hot pink tubular 1/2" flowers appear in dense clusters towards the tips of the stems, blooms are gorgeous, long lasting, and free flowering

adorable miniature, clumping and quickly becoming specimens, 2" canes bear numerous narrow 2" leaves, each cane produces many short densely flowered spikes that literally bury the plant with blooms, the 1/2" flowers are white with a lime-green lip
compact miniature with 2" bulbs with white roots and needle-like 2" leaves, flowers form small clusters on the bulbs and are very long-lasting (4 to 6 months), wide open 1" blooms are pink to purple with a bright orange-red lip, an easy to grow member of the Oxyglossum section of New Guinea Dendrobiums
an outstanding miniature with an awesome flower, made to order for Dendrobium nuts, plant looks like a bonsai with dark slow-growing canes topped with a purplish growing tip consisting of a few new 1" leaves, blooms appear randomly along the older canes in groups of 1 to 3, the 3/4" scarlet red blooms are fantastic with a deep red pollen cap, five-star orchid for the serious collector, needs to grow cool and moist (a bit tough for those of you down south)
a wonderful Dendrobium unicum relative with smaller 1" to 3" stubby deciduous bulbs, dark green 2" leaves alternate up the new growth, short spikes emerge from leafless canes each carrying 2-4 awsome 2-1/2" red orange upside down blooms, thin undulated sepals and petals are twisted with a narrow curved creamy yellow lip heavily veined red, fragrant
another charming pendant clumping miniature (similar to but a different sp. than D. dichaeoides creeping type) from the Pedilonum section, thick fleshy cigar shaped stems up to 4" covered rank-and-file with short 1/2" leaves, hot pink tubular 1/2" flowers appear in dense clusters towards the tips of the stems, rather free flowering with blooms that are gorgeous and long lasting
