Tiniest of seeds...only an orchid

This past winter, I decided that it was time to take my orchid interest to the next level and attempt a few crosses. While I did try 9unsuccessfully) several years ago, this time my efforts proved fruitful...well, at least to the ripening of seed pods stage! Now, once we overcome the perils of invitro seed sowing (flasking) we have to test for seed viability, growth and bloom habits, and ultimately if it's something worth keeping and propagating!

So, have you ever wondered how tiny orchid seeds are?
