Acianthera bragae
Acianthera bragae, also known as Pleurothallis sarracenia, is a tiny creeping species with terete (pencil-like) leaves. The leaves are 3cm long and grow in a row on a creeping stem. The 2cm flowers usually comes in pairs with the flowers facing each other, but occasionally as one. The species is from Brazil. I grow it mounted and with cool temperatures.

Thanks for the kind comments, Elisabete. This is an easy plant for me.
DeleteBeautiful! I can see why its called P. sarracenia
ReplyDeleteYes, indeed. I like that name much better.
DeleteHe did not know the plant, the flowers are really original. Here the Pleurothallis are difficult to grow, too much heat. Best regards
ReplyDeleteThanks, Angel.
