Thanks Nidhan sir. :)

And thank you Pankaj sir. I can get photos of the roots and any other
parts. I was with two orchid lovers who regularly go to these areas and if
they find any orchid containing branches fallen down, bring it back home
and grow it. They gave me a branch too. Please tell me which parts and how
to show very clearly to distinguish the species (if it is possible to
distinguish using photos).
