Some might ask what the @$^* I am doing with a restrepia...especially those who know my general disdain for botanicals and other plants with small flowers. But Jane sent me a piece of her restrepia with the neos, and it is similar to masdies, of which I have a few...so...I potted it up in clay/moss and stuck it in with the masdies.

This species is a TOTAL weed. Summer has been in full swing for a while here (read: hot, humid, generally nasty weather & temps), and this plant must have put out a dozen flowers in the past month. very short-lived, probably due to the temps, but quite attractive I must admit. Even if it is _small_. Apologies for photo quality. I have reached the outer limits of my camera, zoom & macro on this one aren't built for restrepia flowers it seems.
