The Phal gigantea was growing in an orchid nursery.Though it is not found here in the Camerons I just had to post a picture of it as it was such a healthy plant growing here in the highlands.The leaves were almost 2ft long.Compare it with the bird-nest fern growing beneath it. The Phaius tankerville was also growing in this nursery.
The Paph lowii used to be found here in abundance but over-collecting has decimated their numbers in the wild. Here they grow as epiphytes in the branches of trees.
