A compact species from tropical western and central Africa. Produces pendant sprays of long-lasting, white star-shaped flowers with a hint of pink on the spurs and a sweet gardenia-like fragrance. The name biloba refers to the two-lobed tips of the dark-green, leathery leaves.
Grows best in intermediate to warm conditions and bright indirect light. Water regularly throughout the year, allowing the roots to dry out slightly between watering. Will also grow well mounted on tree fern or similar.
