Bulbophyllum falcatum, an even tinier orchid... there are several color forms, this is the "red bract" one. Each flower is about 0.25"

Sainpaulia, I think. My mum loves them, her house is full of them and she pushes some on me though I hate them.

Great, thanks, Tony. Probably it won't grow here <sigh>, but it's quite lovely.

Hello Julie,

Here is the information on that flower. It is also known as: "Million Bells."

Calibrachoa
Plant
Calibrachoa is a genus of plants in the Solanaceae family. They are evergreen short-lived perennials and subshrubs with a sprawling habit, with small petunia-type flowers.

Thanks a million, Tony. Not familiar to me, I shall have to do some reading/searching. Solanaceae are the "nightshade" family, includes potatoes (of all things!) and some other ornamentals.

Update...turns out they DO grow here, actually can be perennials in this climate (grown as annuals in northern climes). Who knew? And the hybris come in a bazillion colors, too. Now, to find some... thank you!

Hello Julie.

You are of course, most welcome. My pleasure and it just tickles me that I was of some assistance to you. I do enjoy your images and your expertise as well.

Rgds,

Tonytee
