A warm-growing epiphyte from the tropical forests of South and Southeast Asia, bearing short umbellate inflorescences with several simultaneously opening flowers. Each bloom features dramatically elongated, tapering lateral sepals, small spotted petals, and a fleshy dark labelo — and carries a notable fragrance.

• Light: Bright indirect light with 40–50% shade cloth; avoid direct sun to protect the foliage.
• Temperature: 65–86°F (18–30°C); a warm grower with a minimum tolerance around 60°F (15°C).
• Humidity: 70–85%; high humidity with strong air movement is essential for healthy root development.
• Watering: Water thoroughly and allow the mix to approach dryness between waterings; avoid prolonged saturation at the roots.

Additional Notes

Best grown mounted on cork or in a basket with a coarse bark mix for excellent drainage and airflow. Ships bare root, well established.
