Default Spa. kimballiana var antiquensis
This lovely ground orchid was picked up from Home Depot last year. This thing NEVER quits blooming! During the summer, It is full of flowers (as you can see)...but even throughout the winter it maintains 4-5 constant spikes. This thing produces more flowers in a year than than all my Phals combined.

I just love these. Wish there was a way to grow them here in the high desert.
