Some will know the Philippine ground orchid (Spathoglottis plicata) from the florist, and it grows commonly here in the forest at mid elevations and upwards. The leaves resemble coconut sprouts or the first two simple leaves coming out of the coconut and it’s thus easy to recognize when it’s not in bloom.
Native range is Tropical and Subtropical Asia to Pacific.
