Phalaenopsis singuliflora

A natural hybrid of Phalaenopsis bellina and P. sumatrana from Borneo, named for flowers that open one after another on the same spike. Both parents are warm lowland epiphytes, so grow it like them: warm, shaded, humid and evenly moist all year.

Where it grows wild

Little is recorded for the hybrid itself. Both parents grow on trunks and branches in humid lowland forest, often near rivers, and the hybrid presumably occurs where they meet.

No elevation is recorded. The measured site sits at about 430 m, which fits the lowland parents.
