Dresslerella caesariata
Dresslerella is a small genus of plants characterized by hairy leaves, inflorescences and flowers, i.e.,
everything is covered with hairs. This plant is pendant with 15 cm
leaves and short stems and the 3 cm flowers come at the juncture of
leave and stem. Dresslerella caesariata is from Ecuador, is cool growing and needs to be mounted because of its growth habit. I grow mine on a piece of
very open tree fern root and water it every day. It prefers lower light and flowers better then.

Such strange & intriguing blossoms! Wonderful shots =)
ReplyDeleteThey are unusual, aren't they? I like unusual flowers and not the ordinary orchids that are sold in the box stores and grocery stores.
