    about 5 cm long and 2-3 wide. Oh and the third, i highly doubt you would find it at a nursery, simply due to the fact i crossed it last season (inadvertantly) and you are 100 % guaranteed NOT to find any arachnorchis species in any nursery of any type

    And the next two are my favorites among the NZ epiphytes....
    Winika cunninghamii, or the ladies slipper orchid. very shy flowering in cultivation however.

    the 'Winika' a maori word meaning itself, 'little orchid', of which winika is the genus name. the Tainui tribe Waka is named after the orchids genus name.
