| This species has incredible blooms that move, wave, and wiggle, it is found in peninsular Burma, Thailand, Laos and Vietnam in primary montane forests at elevations of 1000 to 2000 meters with 2 to 3cm between each elliptic, olive green pseudobulb carrying a single, apical oblong-elliptic, sessile leaf that blooms in the summer and autumn on a basal, erect, 14cm long, single-flowered inflorescence with membraneous, lanceolate floral bract. It is a warm to hot grower and I have potted them in wood slat baskets with some tree fern. Give it shade, moist conditions, and plenty of air movement. The trick is to let the newest growth be close to the wood basket and the oldest in the center. This way the new growth attaches to the wood and is more likely to bloom.
