a perennial orchid inhabiting rocks or trunks by spreading and
sticking many roots. Stems are in bundles, with a height of 10-30cm,
with many nodes, and each internode has many streaks. Leaves are
alternate, each lanceolate thick, approximately 5cm long, and stay

bloom at the nodes having lost leaves. Lips are a bit shorter than
sepals and petals. Bloom time: May-June. |
