Botanic information
Leaf: The variable sessile mid green leaves are lanceolate to broad elliptical with a pleated upper surface and clasp the reddish stems with undulating margins and a droopy acuminate apex.

Flower: The nodding calceolate flowers have 3-spreading light brown to greenish cupped-sepals with darker veins up to 20 mm (¾ in) long. The 2-upper petals form a hood and the lower reddish petals form a cup-shaped that is up to 15 mm (⅝ in) long with a pointed yellowish tongue-like protuberance. 

They surround the yellowish thick column which contains the style, stigma and stamens and the flower is pollinated by insects. They are 3-blooms arranged in a one-sided terminal spike that is accompanied with bracts on a stem up to 1 m (3ft) tall. The flowering period is primarily from spring to summer but blooms may also appear during autumn.

Fruit: The pendant ribbed capsule is green maturing into brown and contains numerous tiny seeds that are viable but the plant may be reproduced vegetatively.
