A Japanese terrestrial orchid that has become a cult plant in Japan, with selections in avrious colours and patterns selling for high prices.
Mine is just one of the cheap rejects that get dumped on the ignorant Europeans (and speaking as one of the aforementioned ignorant Europeans
, I am very pleased to have them!)

I don't think my original plant has made it through the winter, and I have bought a couple of others
which shows something of the variability of the species.
