I have some hundreds of Ascocentrum miniatum seeds. I'd like to swap them for some Vanda coerulea and/or Bulbophyllum medusae and/or Dendrobium chrystianum seeds.
Actually kids, little euglossine bees pollinate the stanhopea. Just because the flower is large, doesn't mean it's pollinator is.

An excellent point, and quite correct. All I can say is... It wasn't me that said that!

It is indeed! Stanhopea tigrina. One of my favourite plants in the greenhouse because of it's amazing scent.
