Who identified this orchid? It is very interesting..... I must say, somehow it doesnt match to anything from south and it could be a new species!!

This is infact closer to Gastrochilus flabelliformis but not exactly the same. Very interesting. Navendu, please take a look. Do you have any pic of Gastrochilus flabelliformis?

This is obviously a deformed plant. If the character is consistent, then may be a new species or subspecies. Otherwise I will call this Gastrochilus flabelliformis.

Sorry my friend who is an expert of this genus says this is Gastrochilus acaulis.
I was confused about this.
Thanks and regards
