    This is my first bloom for this plant. I bought it in March from Ecuagenera.

    To give a rough estimate, I would say that flower is just under 2" and the plants total leaf height is less than 3". The lip bounces on its hinge with the smallest amount of air movement. It reminds me of a smaller Amanda section Masdie.
