This very unusual orchid species is from Papua New Guinea. It belong to a small genus of about twenty species, mostly from the cloud forests and most with brightly colored flowers. The individual growths, one of which is shown here, are 2-3 inches but grow on top of each other in a rambling fashion. orchidsinbloom-ron.blogspot.com/2013/01/mediocalcar-verst...

This is the plant whose flowers are shown below. As I noted in that post, the plant tends to ramble all over and is impossible to confine to a pot. It is from New Guinea and prefers cool temperatures and good humidity. orchidsinbloom-ron.blogspot.com/2013/01/mediocalcar-verst...
