Promenaea xanthina
All the Promenaea species are miniatures and all are from Brazil. They are small plants with large flowers and worth growing if one can provide cooler temperatures and good humidity. One of the more brightly colored species is Promenaea xanthina with its beautiful yellow flowers. The plant is only 6-8 cm tall with
small flattened pseudobulbs and soft, pale green foliage. The flowers are 4-5 cm in size and make a good
display if happy.

Superb! It is one of my favorites. It blooms every year with generosity. Best regards
ReplyDeleteThanks, Angel. Mine always blooms prolifically, too, but a little earlier in the year, late spring usually.
