Thecostele alata
A wonderful little species that you don't get to see everyday. A monotype species found through out South East Asia that has a wonderful fragrance. I grow mine hot and bright with reduced water during the winter months. Although the flowers are fairly small, about the size of my index finger fingernail, they really can put on a show when mature. The inflourescense continues to grow as the flowers open a few at a time successively. The plant can be in bloom for months. I've had mine for awhile, it's still fairly young but has managed to put out a half dozen spikes so far this year.
