I encountered this species in bloom in a few places in Firhmin Forest. It is a very variable species, and is found with spatulate (spoon-shaped) leaves, like this one nearby.
This individual is growing in the leaf-litter of a dragon blood tree (Dracaena cinnabari).
This is a species with a very wide distribbution.
Elevation: 703 meters.
