    Porroglossum meridionale, Ortiz 1976. Grows in Ecuador and Peru at around 2000 meters.

    I grow 2 plants. One have much stronger colors then the other plant. Here you can see and compare the both plants. Also pictures with the lips open and triggered.
    I grow one plant on Xaxim and the other one on a Rhododendron branch.
