This is a large Coelogyne with very beautiful green flowers. It can be found in Malaysia, Borneo, Sumatra as well as Philippines. This particular plant was collected from the Malaysian jungle and sold to me by Mr Lim Song of Penang many years ago. The leaves are about 30cm long and 10-12cm wide. Pseudobulbs are flattend, about 8cm wide and 4cm thick.
This plant flowers very well when grown in very bright light (almost full sun for most part of the day). But when grown in partial shade the leaves become bigger and greener. I repotted this plant last year and it finaly threw out a flower spike recently. Charcoal was used as the medium and the pot was placed directly onto soil.
