I can’t see the flower properly. It is Crepidium may be acuminatum or purpureum, but cant confirm. Please share a better pic of flower if possible.
This is indeed interesting.
This should be Crepidium khasianum. I have never seen a picture of this species before.
You must take some good pics of the plant for record.
Sir, attached herewith another same Crepidium khasianum Attachments (2)
I need to see the lobes on the top. In this it seems flowers are not mature yet hence the lobes are not distinct. I have seen in Crepidium that the lobes become distinct after few days of opening of flower.
Thanks for sharing anyways. Infact when it was described originally, all were kept on one sheet, then they tried to differentiate one from another, as they look almost similar with the leaves.

I can agree to this to be Crepidium khasianum. I have been working on this genus for sometime and I think khasianum is very variable and it already has some new synonyms from Thailand too, which I would be publishing in my article.
There is also another colour form with yellow flowers and then third form with reddish leaves.
