Great plant François! They're not supposed to be easy growing. Do you grow the in pot? and in a greenhouse?

Yes I grow it in pot, and in a cold greenhouse
I don't think they are as difficult as people often think... If you have the right conditions, it's not more difficult than other orchids

Tindo, the rest of the plant is not terribly aesthetic, in my opinion. Most Thelymitras have a single blade of leaf that resembles a blade of grass.
I think the most interesting part of the plant, other than the flowers, are the roots and the tuberoids.
