Drier/Mature



This species is widespread throughout Burma, Thailand, Laos, Veitnam and into South China. An easy to grow species in loose media, such as coconut chips, which maintain good humidity levels while allowing excellent air movement through the medium. It also grows well mounted, so the pendulant canes can arched downward. It is deciduous in the fall, with the fuzzy lipped flowers arising from the old leaf axils in the following spring. The flowers are fragrant. New growth begins after the spring flowers fade. Originally collected near Moulmein, by Rev. C. Parish. One of the Parish specimens was used by H. G. Reichenbach to describe the species. His description, which honors Rev. Parish, appeared in Botanische Zeitung in 1863
