This is another species orchid from my collection. A warm growing epiphyte found in Sumatra, the Celebes, the Moluccas, and New Guinea at elevations of 100 to 800 meters. Found in primary rainforests on the lower trunks of large trees. they bloom on a basal, erect to arching, to 10" [to 25 cm] long, single flowered, green inflorescence with foul smelling flowers that is longer than the leaves and occurs in the fall.
Unfortunately, I had to include a small portion of its container if I wanted to show it's growing habit. Hope you like it anyway. C and C welcome, I'm here to learn. - John
