| From Japan, Korea and the Ryukyu Islands, it is a warm to cool grower, found in areas that have shady summers, and because of the deciduous trees that they grow on, almost full sun in the winter, with a short, monopodial, complanate stem enveloped basally by conduplicate leaf bases carrying coriaceous, distichous, fleshy, conduplicate, linear-falcate leaves that blooms on a racemose, axillary, to 7cm long, laxly several flowered inflorescence that appears in early summer through fall with nocturnal, fragrant flowers. Best mounted on tree fern or cork here in warm conditions yet it can be done in suspended pots with a very coarse mixture to allow air to get to the roots. The plant is a small, monopodial, vandaceous plant that is under 12.5cm tall.
