A most unusual species from the slopes of Volcan Arenal in Costa Rica. The forest is second growth after a 1968 eruption, with much debris hidden in the dense undergrowth. The conditions are very moist and all surfaces are covered in mosses. This species lives in deep shade and the foliage which is long and strap like, is somewhat discolor. The inflorescence is stunning; club like with deep purple, almost blackish bracts that forms a large spherical head. Very unusual and decorative.
