-

The plant creates quadrangul­ar pseudobulb­s that reach a height of up to 3.2 in /8 cm and bear one broadly oval, tough leaf. Between 2-3 yellowish flowers grow on erect infloresce­nce from the basis of the pseudobulb­s. They are fairly large, with a showy spur- shaped ‘’chin’’. The lip is purple and covered with a thick layer of hairs. Its original home is in the wild natural environmen­t of Brazil.
