Maxillaria Tenuifolia is also called The Coconut Orchid. It blooms on a 5cm long, single flowered inflorescence arising on a mature pseudobulb with scarious, basal bracts with the flower held at mid leaf height and occurs in spring and summer. It produces dark red-colored petals with dark yellow marbled patterns. The concave lip is dark, deeply blood-red from the base to the half-length, while its apical part is dark yellow with red-purple or red-brown spots forming a leopard pattern. The beer-yellow prong has dark red spots on the front.
