Plant blooms from late autumn through spring with a 10 cm wide flower. The leaves are dull green and strap-shaped with no markings. Plants are reported to form clumps in nature. The flowers are born atop a long, weakly, pubescent peduncle with a single, medium sized flower. Flower with broad, white dorsal sepal that is finely penciled and suffused with purple; petals deflexed and ruffled at margins, lined in purple; lip urceolate, tan, flecked with rust colored dots, microscopically pubescent. Synsepal smaller than dorsal sepal, milk-colored, striped purple. Fly pollinated. |
