Dinema polybulbon

This species used to be included in the Encyclia genus.  The flowers are very similar and the plants have pseudobulbs, but they do creep around quite a lot and form huge mats covering the sides of the trees.  This plant is quite common on the Gulf slope around 3000 to 4000 ft.   When weyman sees a bunch driving down the road at 50 miles per hour he normally screams, jokingly, there goes a bunch of Di"enemas"!
