native of Myanmar, Thailand, and Laos. The flowers of this species are quite variable, with regard to perianth color and spotting on the throat of the labellum. The flowers are large, 3 inches across, and long-lived. The segments are twisted, which have led some (Wood) to suggest a relationship to D. tortile. Others suggest a close affinity to D. nobile. It needs a dry winter rest in order to bloom.
