Pleurothallis marthae… this Orchid is a prolific bloomer . We have it growing in a cool room but it can take a bit warmer temps… up to mid 80’s. For a Pleurothallis it’s a nice one 😜

All our Vanilla planifolia are blooming this week. Making sure we pollinate every single flower so we get fruit in 9 months! Videos of pollination make it look so easy... when you have to climb and contort your body to get to the flower it gets a bit more complicated. #vanilla #vanillaplanifolia #orchids #orchidsofinstagram

Haworthia cooperi ‘OB1’ my friend @marinsect_gianluca is growing. Hoping to get this into the conservatory collection soon. Haworthias can be addictive.. so many different forms. They are one of the few succulents that make good houseplants but also do well outside. #haworthia #haworthiacooperi #haworthiacooperiob1 #succulents #plants #succulentsofinstagram

This Pleuro is a cool to intermediate growing epiphyte from Ecuador. The somewhat stiff leaves curve a little forward so that when the blooms appear it looks like the leaves are protecting the flowers. Cool looking plant that also stays nice and compact! These are specimen size plants that took many years to grow. Wonderful hardy plant tolerant of drying out a bit between watering. Can flower more than once per year. Each leaf produces flowers for many years .
