Default Eurystyles cotyledon

An orchid that looks more like a bromeliad or maybe a saxifraga!
It's a tiny thing,fragile and delicate, with intricate bracts and flowers.I think it works more as "a package",rather as flowers alone!
From Brazil, where it grows 2-3 feet from the ground in shade and humidity, yet never on it!
A case of a terrestrial becoming an epiphyte.

Like a Pleurothallid.Low light ,intermediate temps,and lots of humidity.
Surprisingly the roots do better on a solid surface with a thin covering of moss,I find.
