A nice, small sized, terete pseudobulb and tough, linear-falcate leaf, it's flowers arise from the dry, brown sheaths at the base of the pseudobulb, and grows into dense mats. It is a warm to hot growing epiphytic plant found at elevations up to 500 meters, free-flowering in almost all seasons with a solitary or pair of, short-lived flowers arising on a short stalk on a new growth at the base, and comes from the Philippines. It may be mounted in a wood slat basket or on cork and is an easy plant to grow.
