Ascofinetia Cherry Blossom Carmela
|
Our Ascofinetia Cherry Blossom Carmela is still blooming today. This cross between Neofinetia falcata x Ascocentrum ampullaceum, is a compact vandaceous type orchid that can be easily grown in bark or moss in pots or basket. I've posted about this specimen last year and we had Anthony posing with it. The photo gives you an idea how small this miniature is. Click here for the photo. It flowers at the same time each year, between late April through May.
