Thumbs up Pleurothallis grobyi
This is one prolific bloomer. It has been constantly in spike and blooming since March.

Beautiful plant very nicely mounted. What type of wood is that?

I believe it is a chunk of Pecan wood. I can't remember for sure.

Hey Shadytrake,
That is one healthy looking Pleurothallis! And the blooms are delightful!

How old is your plant? It looks like it's been around for a few seasons.

Well I can't take credit for the size of the plant. I bought it as a gift for my hubby (in March). The vendor got it in Mexico. I will take credit for these blooms. This is the 3rd round of spikes since I got it.

It is several years old.
