Maxillaria uncata

[boytjie]

Small half-inch blooms, sometimes hard to see; they nestle inside the foliage. Just getting a decent pic was tough. The plant actually had six open blooms on it before I even realized it was flowering. This one is mounted on cork with a bit of sphagnum. Seems to like to stay a bit wetter than my other two Maxillaria species, but maybe that's because it's mounted.

Thanks for looking!

Thanks for sharing with us Stephen. It's a lovely miniature. I just got one of these about 3 weeks ago. I look at it every day just to make sure that I don't miss the blooms. Congrats on the blooms !!!!
