Field Notes

Description:

Green leaves with pink veining. Fleshy stems ... attached to rock face on the edge of a mountainside waterfall.

Habitat:

Mountainside waterfall

Notes:

This is orchid is known more for its leaves than blooms which are quite insignificant, but perfumed. Fingers crossed this part of the waterfall will still be accessible when this plant is flowering as I would love to see it in bloom
