    This is one of my favorite Stelis species. I just love the deep red color and the lovely little hairs on the perfectly shaped flowers... I grow it fairly bright mounted on EpiWeb in the cool vivarium. It shares the EpiWeb mount with some nice tropical moss, and I really like the natural look... almost as if it grew in situ. :)

    Thank you both! :) Yes, this particular Stelis is very showy... I really like it too.
