That is a spectacular species. I have been not been able to find any information about it other than it is from the Philippines. I did find one mention of its being from Mindanao, but nothing about its elevation. Is this a warm-growing, lower elevation species? How large?

In fact it looks like V, limbata. The overall plant is smaller, which is welcome in my small greenhouse , lol.
Not sure if it is from Mindanao, but there are some articles here and there available lately on the internet. It used to be known as the Philippine V. limbata, but few years ago received own status. Motes described it. Limbata is an indonesian species.
I grow it warm to intermediate. Warm dry days, cool very humid nights.
