Tiny orchid with small pseudobulbs: flowers have a slightly musky smell.

Your plant and my Panisea albiflora almost like identical twins. Very nice!

I just googled Panisea albiflora and I can say you're right Tom, almost like identical twins indeed. At first sight I would say this is the same species, but there is difference: the lip of Panisea albiflora is a bit more wide with a bit undulate margins, I guess there are some more differences, but yes, they are very similar. I'll pay attention to this species for sure.

Panisea albiflora has two leaves and the spike comes from the tip of the pseudobulb, while Dickasonia vernicosa has one leaf per pseudobulb and the spike comes from the base of the pseudobulb. The pseudobulbs have different shape as well. Based on what I have seen here, yours is Panisea albiflora IMO...
