Product Details
A super species in the genus with typical broadly lanceolate leaves which have a pleated appearance and bright green in colour. These rise from Pseudobulbs and each bulb produces around 3 or 4 leaves in early summer to about 20 cms long. Flowers are a little variable, generally white and a dark purple-brownish colour but may be paler, very attractive either way we look at them.
