This Pleuro sp. is starting to bloom. I spent an hour looking at every pleuro I could find but I didn't ID it.

Kathy, I suspect it may be one of the many of that type that is not positively identified yet. Looking through this site could take some time and they show many unidentified plants, maybe you have already researched this site.

I dug a bit around in the Specklinia section, but no luck so far. The stems are very thick on your plant.

Platystele umbellata flowers frequently throughout the year, especially during the indoor season. The plant is loaded right now with little Raspberries and buds.

My leptotes bicolor is about half the size of your's, and way later, but it has two spikes. It stayed out all winter.

Well I was hoping that my Phal parishii would have all 5 buds open at once but it was not meant to happen! Four blooms again.

Sigmatostalix unguiculata is blooming really well this indoor season. I find the silly little flowers totally amusing. Smiling
