Thanks for taking so much efforts for acurate id Dear Pankaj
i know u do take efforts and there has no place to doubt when orchid is
identified by you
thats the reason why few days back i have told Ritesh that you are the
right person for acurate id of orchids
on which he has rightly named you
Thank you Rajdeo Singh, Mr.ingalhalikar, Prof. Singh Dinesh for the id.
In all fairness, have to state that Dr.Almeida his student Santosh Yadav
made the diagnosis whilst visiting my farm from this photograph [and not
from actually seeing the specimen - which was a little distance away].
I agree with Vijayasankar ji.

Identity is a question mark. R.minima is a slender trailing annual with small
