I'm not sure what the sign says. If someone could tell me it would be great. This is in the highland house of ABG.

A bigger more detailed picture would help identifying. I think it looks like N. xiphioides.

Ehehe N. gymnamphora according to me...the same as N. xiphioides I think...

 

[Pyro]

It is gymnamphoria. I saw the plant yesterday.

 

[Treaqum]

Ahh thanks Travis. Sorry everyone thats as good as the camera gets (well the one I had anyway).

 

[Slurm]

It is N.gymnamphora.
this variety seems to create tiny ground rosettes a la N.ampullaria.

 

[Clint]

there was a highland house? i went years ago and i found the lowland area that lead from the rainforest area into the desert area..

 

[Pyro]

Yes Clint there is a highland house. Relativly new (2001 I think) part of the Fuqua Orchid Center construction. It has a whole corner devoted to highland Neps and another area for tepui plants that has beautiful Helies

 

[Treaqum]

H. minor only if I am not mistaken alon with Brochinna

 

[Pyro]

There are other Helies up there. The minor clone is up front being that it is not so rare. I know there are nutans and I think there is a neblina and an ionasii in there as well, further up in the back, where you can not reach easily if you are dumb enough to think you can steal them.

 

[Treaqum]

Oh yes tatei var. neblina I remember that one. I think the ionasii and nutans might be new since last summer or they were just not labelled then.
