The large, ovate leaves are a rich, glossy green, adorned with subtle veining that adds to their allure. The flowers, which emerge in a succession of blooms, are a breathtaking sight to behold. They boast a unique, constricted labellum, giving the orchid its name, and are often a captivating blend of yellow, orange, and red hues.
