Flowering from mid January to mid February. The supervolute leaves are interestingly darkish green glaucous with almost prostrate to slightly arching habit and slightly clawed at tip. Leaves are typically 140 mm long, broadly parallel in width throughout but slightly broader at midpoint, where the width is approximately 18 mm. Scape is erect about 150 mm high carrying a single flower. Valve 20 mm arched, not inflated. Ovary 8 mm x 6 mm, obovate. Inflorescence: three outer segments up to 30 mm in length and 15 mm broad at widest point. Outers have 6-8 light green lines and faint shading over the lower third of the segment towards the apex. The three inner segments are 12mm in length and 6 mm in width. The apical mark covers about 40% of the segment from the sinus and is a strong green inverted heart shape with a little further shading towards the base. Inside of the inner segments is solid green over almost the whole area.
