Lepanthes stenophora

Lepanthes stenophora
This orchid species from Costa Rica is about 4 inches tall and flowers on these wonderful fishbone-like inflorescences that are almost always in bloom. The flower are very colorful but are only about 1/4 inch in size. Along with the two flowers I've posted before it and the two after it, it belongs to a group of related orchids called Pleurothallids.
