Comparison shot of the Lyonara - with Nikon/flash during a downpour as it got a bit darkish in the greenhouse. ( so glad it was only rain!)

Here is a real cutie, Zygostates apiculata ( or by its other name Dipteranthus estradae). I grow this plant since 2003 and to give you some perspective of the size - the whole thing fits into the palm of my hand!

adorable?

And on the other end of the spectrum - Dendrobium anceps, some of the pieces are over 4 feet long! But the blooms are small! And there are mostly underneath the growth.
