This orchid is found in northeastern India, Myanmar, southern China, Laos, Vietnam, Thailand, and Malaysia at elevations of 700 to 1500 meters in evergreen and montane forests. It is a medium-sized, warm-growing epiphyte or lithophyte with clustered, grooved, glossy pseudobulbs and two lanceolate, plicate leaves. Blooming in winter, it produces a slender, 10 to 15 cm long, erect inflorescence with 2 to 4 simultaneously opening, fragrant flowers, emerging from a newly developing pseudobulb and having deciduous floral bracts.
