The fleshy yellow-green to brown-green flowers have oblong-lanceolate sepals ~1.8 cm long and slightly shorter linear-lanceolate petals. The sepals curl backwards along their margins. The obscurely trilobate lip is adnate to the column to its apex, and cordate at the base. The medial lobe is acute. References1. ^R.
