From northeastern Australia and sporadically in New Guinea where it is found in mangroves in hot steamy low lying coastal swamps at elevations of sea-level to 200 meters and is a large to giant sized, hot growing epiphyte with basally swollen, tapering towards the apex stems with blackish brown with purple stripes carrying 5 to 15 in the upper-half, dark green, elliptic to ovate, erect to spreading, distichous, alternating, rigid leaves.
They receive high light and at times salt spray as they grow overhanging the sea. The bloom season is in the summer and early fall on a 16″ [40 cm] long, erect, racemose, several flowered, inflorescence, with fragrant long-lasting flowers, that arises from the upper nodes of the cane and needs bright sunlight to initiate blooming.
