Default Smitinandia micrantha ... another mini vandaceous

Here is a pic of another of the mini vandaceous orchids. Both this one as the Schoenorchis seidenfadenii I posted were from the Thailand donation to the Memorial University of Newfoundland Botanical Garden. The rest of the donation consisted of 3 Dendrobiums and 18 large Vanda/Ascocendas (second pic).

Wow! That is too cool! I've never heard of this one. How large is this plant in total?

I just love them all! Need any help?

I'm waiting patiently for my Schoenorchis fragrans to do something

Someday...

Tindomul, the entire plant is about 6" high with a 3" spread. The individual flowers are just as small as the Schoenorchis. I should add that Smitinandia is also fragrant in the late afternoons.
