Habenaria lindleyana

This is a native orchid of Thailand which i grow in a big ceramic pot together with some lemon grass.  The plant will wither away after flowering but it has underground tubers which wil produce another plant.  Cannot remember how long was the hibernation period but i think it was less than two months. 

Also, i think the recent pictures are better than those i took earlier partly due o the right lighting condition and partly due to the better lens used.

Two small little plants managed to survive this time after i sprinkled the seeds around the plant.  One of them is completely covered by the leaf of the mother plant but it seem to do better than the one exposed to the sun.
