Matheran, Maharashtra



There are two ways to think. Is Habenaria rariflora not a sciophyte? Or this is 
first interesting report of it being sciophyte? 
A better term should be Habenaria rariflora growing as EPIPHYTE!!

Even while growing in grasses many orchids get shade due to grasses including 
few species of Habenaria, Zeuxine, Eulophia etc. But interesting pic that a 
Habenaria is growing on tree trunk. There are few more examples from this group 
playing such games.... but not sci
