Maxillaria minuta 'Grace'
This just arrived 09/21/17 from eBay vendor out of Missouri.
Staying within the miniature ranks, this one is really small! For comparison, I have included my other two most recent miniature Orchids. These three plants represent three continents!

Nice! I expect my minuta to arrive today as well. Aren't they tiny? Is your plant in bark? The minuta I purchased is mounted and fairly large for this plant. I would prefer potted, doubt I change it though at least not for awhile. I really hate disturbing mounted plants. I could post a picture of the plant I but its not my picture, it's from the eBay listings.
Missouri? Hmm, I'm originally from Missouri. Small world.

Grace? I've not seen this name Matt. Do you know what color it will bloom? I believe there are yellows as well as reds? Interesting!

Yes, it would probably get lost with larger plants. But all of my mini-orchids are on the same shelf, so they don't get lost! Even still, it is really small.

The picture that accompanied this listing in eBay showed it would be yellow with red stripes in the petals. Not too sure. To me, flowers are besides the point! |

Matt, yep flowers are beside the point though a nice added attraction. Omg, Neo flowers are a must have if only for the fragrance!!! I'm going to miss that evening and early morning fragrance.
The minuta I've purchased has the red flowers with yellow stripes, lol or maybe it's the other way round. Agree, it's not important.
