Ascocentrum miniatum (Lindl.) Schltr

Description:  Common in Cambodia, this epiphyte thrives in tropical climates, in deciduous or evergreen forest. The small plant looks like a fan with fleshy, leathery roots that clasp to tree trunks for support. The short, V-cupped leaves are medium to light green. If grown in lots of sun they turn red-green.
