In the wild this species is found in the islands southwest as an epiphyte in the understory on bushes in remnants of lowland open forests and montane forest at elevations between 1,600-2100 metres. The pseudobulbs are placed close together with less than 1 cm apart. The leaves are just under 10 cm long. Inflorescences measure 10-18 cm, bear up to 4 flowers that measure 1.5 cm across. The plant usually blooms during spring and summer.
