    A friend bought this at the WOC in Tokyo and gave me a piece. I don't know anything about it. If someone has any information I would love to know more. It is an evergreen Calanthe. The flower is about 1.5" wide, it is a compact plant. I didn't bloom it for many years until I put it in my cold winter greenhouse and gave it a dry winter rest.
