This epiphytic orchid features thick, leathery leaves arranged in opposite rows that can grow up to 50 cm long. Its large, showy white flowers are borne on arching, branched racemes reaching up to 1 meter, with each bloom lasting several weeks. A distinctive feature is the lip: the side lobes have a deep yellow margin, while the centre lobe is cross-shaped with two yellow tendrils curling from the tip. The species blooms primarily from spring and is fragrant, with flowers reaching about 10 cm across.
