[Ricardo in PR]

This lovely orchid is found wild on the upper reaches of the mountains of El Yunque rainforest in Puerto Rico. This species in not currently in cultivation or available commercially. To enjoy it you have to trek into the rain forest and search for it. If you ever come across it please don't collect it, its not allowed inside the preserves where most of these plants survive. I have no reports of this plant surviving in captivity. All five or six species of this genus are confined to the Greater Antillies. Its common name in English is the parrot beak orchid.
