Default Pths teres

This is my one and only Pleurothallis, a gift from my good friend Laura

I lost count of how many pictures I had to take to get a decent one or two! The bloom is less than 1/4"!

Those Pluros have really little and really strange blossoms, right?

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

It's so pretty and cute Sue! I just love the little blooms! And I know what you mean about having to take a bunch of pics just to get a couple good ones. It takes me so long to take a picture of any orchid bloom. I'm usually swearing and sweating with my camera in hand. It's not pretty.

Thats way cool! Congrats on the pics Sue, I know how hard those Pleuro flowers can be to get into focus.
