    Got this from Marni a few years ago when she came to speak here. It's an odd little plant, mounted on a tiny piece of cork with just a dab of sphagnum; the plant looks like Brassavola nodosa only one inch tall. The 1/2" flower is hard for me to photograph. If I water it after the flower has opened, the flower lasts about five days. If I do not water it, it lasts about five WEEKS!
