    Default Habenaria radiata

    Hi,

    flower is very beautifull and moreover very fragrant, during winter it dyes back and rest as a tuber.
    When resting needs to be left dry but be carefull that the tubers do not dry out completly.

    Yes. It is also called as "Crane Orchid" or "Egret Orchid" due to this similarity!
