Genus species: Holcoglossum subulifolium, Tribe: Vandeae, Subtribe: Aeridinae, It is a monopodial epiphyte. This means that it produces leaves and flowers from a single stem (monopodial) and grows on another plant for support (epiphyte). Found in the Vietnamese and Chinese montane forests at heights upto 1,600 meters, H. subulifolium produces awl-shaped leaves and white flowers that can grow upto 1 and ½ inches in width. It blooms mainly in the spring and summer.
Optimal growth occurs when they’re planted on tree ferns under full sunlight and high humidity. They have to be consistently watered for successful growth. Sphagnum moss or tree fibers are the best media to grow these orchids on, as they are well- drained and the flowers would thrive.
