Sedirea japonicum
is
an epiphytic perennial orchid growing on evergreen tree trunks or
rocks in mild-climate regions. Stems are short, with many aerial
roots at the bases, where 3-5 oblong thick leaves emerge,
distichously arranged in two rows. As its bloom time comes, pendent
flower stalks appear in a racemose way from the leaf axils with 4-10
light green flowers measuring 1.5-2cm in diameter, on the side
sepals, several red-purple, lateral stripes, and the same color
spots on the lips. Bloom time: May-August |
