Pleurothallis restrepioides "Dragon Stone"
This is a larger Pleurothallis with longer flower spikes. The flowers are good sized and are reported to have a malodorous fragrance, but I haven't noticed any at all. It's in full bloom with about 9 spikes and it looks like more on the way. The flowers are holding pretty well for over 3 weeks now.

Thats gorgeous!!! 3 weeks on a Pluero! Fantastic. Malodorous fragrances attract my attention, along with blue shades. So you know I want one!!
