Bonatea Emerald Dancer
A primary hybrid of Bonatea speciosa x pulchella. This African genus is often found in ravines, where it grows in crevices in sandy soil, in the mountains between South Africa and Tanzania at elevations between 800-2000 meters. Surprisingly easy to grow. Plants can grow much larger.

How unusual! I love rare orchids. Where did you get this?

It is a division from a friend. I had never seen one before so I was interested and asked. |
