Found in Southern Brazil and Paraguay in cool montane forests as well as the lowlands along river banks as a small sized, cool to hot growing epiphyte with oval, elongate pseudobulbs with one or two, apical, linear-oblong, mucronate leaves and blooms with an erect, short to 15cm fractiflex, loosely 2 to 6 flowered raceme occurring in the summer through autumn. Said to be very similar or conspecific with O. uniflorum. Mount in tree fern or pot with a finer mixture, give hot to cool temperatures, high humidity, bright indirect light and good air circulation. Water often while growing and then less as the pseudobulbs mature for a dry winter rest. | Found in Southern Brazil and Paraguay in cool montane forests as well as the lowlands along river banks as a small sized, cool to hot growing epiphyte with oval, elongate pseudobulbs with one or two, apical, linear-oblong, mucronate leaves and blooms with an erect, short to 15cm fractiflex, loosely 2 to 6 flowered raceme occurring in the summer through autumn.
