A robust warm-growing epiphyte from the tropical forests of Southeast Asia, producing dense umbellate inflorescences with numerous narrow, radiating sepals arranged in a striking crown-like display. The plant itself is impressive in stature, with large, dark foliage and prominent pseudobulbs.

• Light: Bright indirect light with 40–50% shade cloth; avoid harsh direct sun to protect the broad leaves.
• Temperature: 65–86°F (18–30°C); a warm grower with a minimum tolerance around 60°F (15°C).
• Humidity: 70–85%; maintain high humidity with strong air circulation to keep roots and foliage healthy.
• Watering: Water thoroughly and allow the mix to approach dryness between waterings; avoid prolonged saturation at the roots.

Additional Notes

Best grown in a well-draining bark-based mix or in a basket; its larger size makes it well suited to pot culture. Ships bare root, well established.
