They were a gift from a friend who travelled into the Sarawak jungle and he did not have the space in his flat to grow it. His wife was kind enough to keep it alive for me for a few days.

When it came to me, the plant was dying but after a while it started to grow and for a few years many people came to admire it.  Each time it bloomed there would be about 4 or 5 strands !! What a lovely sight.
