Plurathalls grobii
Pleurothallis grobii
This little guy is in bloom now. He is not very large, and doesn't make a big splash, but I think it's beautiful. The flowers are much nicer than I expected. First time bloom

Lovely. You have the name spelled wrong, however, It's Pleurothallis grobyi which has now been reclassified as Specklinia grobyi.

I wish they wouldn't keep changing names. Now I need to change all my records. I just updated that one this morning to add the picture, and record the bloom.
Is it now a different genera also?

The changes in Pleurothallis were long overdue. It was a huge genus of dissimilar plants that needed to be broken up, but there will probably be other name changes before it's all over.
