According to Mr. Forrest the flowers of this remarkable species 
are bright orange, with brown markings. It must then be a very 
fine species resembling certain forms of Crocus at first sight. Its 
nearest ally seems to be P. grandiflora, Rolfe, but in this the 
crests of the lip are quite different.
