Astonishing Habenaria! Thank you Kata! A few questions, if you don't mind. Does holotricha always have this muddy tinge to the flowers in your experience? Any noticeable scent? (I'm guessing this is moth pollinated & maybe only smells sweet at night) How big are the flowers? Is H.holotricha a common sight in that part of Thailand? Thanks again!
