    Default Trichoglottis atropurpurea aka brachiata

    The vandaceous genus Trichoglottis has about 70 species, of these, 11 are found in the Philippines. The best known amongst them is perhaps T. atropurpurea, better known as T. brachiata. This plant is found in most larger islands of the country.
    Very fragrant.
