Lucky to see them in their habitat but not lucky to see it bloom in their habitat yet...
I do hope to see it one day...

The first one has unusual leaf markings.
Thank-you.

Thank you for posting! How would you describe the substrate?

 

[Mark Karayannis]

Interesting. Let us know

Really, really nice Canh. Thanks a lot!

Thank you for showing us its habitat.

Thank you to share your beautiful and very interesting pictures. If I have well observed the plants you shows us it appears to me that they have only one growth per plant. Is this usual ?

It is normal now because this species is over exploited so they no longer have big plants or big population

That's so sad!
Good that you have found this in nature to document its habitat with your camera. Thanks a lot!

Yes, good to know the habitat of this species in person and document all related to species information.

Also my thought. Almost doesn't look like the same species as the 2nd photo.
