    Description:

    Dendrochilum tenellum. Well-established blooming size plant in a 2.5" pot. Here is a link to the amazing website orchidspecies.com for more info and pics.

    These plants are often called Grass Orchids (because of the leaves) or Fox Tail Orchids (because of the inflorescence). I like these tiny plants for a number of reasons. They are easy to grow and get large, for a miniature, fast. A specimen size plant fits easily in a 4" pot. I've seen plants with hundreds of tiny arching inflorescences in flower at the same time! That's thousands of tiny flowers open at the same time!

    These plants should never dry out completely.
