Unfortunately I did not see any in my Vietnam trip. But if ever I see one online or from Mr. Canh, he or I will post here.

In the meantime, in the book Orchids of Vietnam, there may be some. Or maybe Olaf can share his pics too.
 
Thank you Leslie. This book is unavailable for me, can you copy few pics and share? I have two books , one is written by prof. Gruss, another by prof. Bream. There are many pics none of them had been taken in habitat. Furthermore few pics show flowers with reddish staminode as vietnamense.

I will do that when I return from Dresden.

Btw Olaf told me there are no habitat pics atm. But I will keep an eye for one.
 
I have the book and there's one the painting of the species as the front cover, which is beautiful. And there's only a photo of a small seedling in situ inside the book. I understand that the species were already "cleaned out" from much of the habitat shortly after its discovery in the 90s. I would think that there's some small populations scattered around in hidden places, or so I hope.
 
As far as I know, the sites have been collected from P. vietnamese for many years.

In fact, individual seedlings are occasionally found there - but never flowering plants
