By looking at the nodding inflorescence and terrestrial habit, I guess it is Geodorum densiflorum. I think its Chlorophytum laxum. Pls. confirm from morphological characters. Geodorum densiflorum

Presenting few images of Geodorum densiflorum (Orchidaceae) Habit:Herb Habitat:Terrestrial,Wild,Moist deciduous forest Sighting:Near Belur,Karnataka,about 1000 msl Date:14-06-2017 Very nice. Yes, this is Geodorum densiflorum, my favourite genus. Just one advice, please check the white balance (WB) of your camera. I think the brown colouration on your image is because of that. Otherwise, you always post excellent images. Please also email me some good images of Dendrobium panduratum as discussed on Facebook. I would like to use them in one of my manuscripts with due credits to you for the photograph IF YOU ALLOW. I also feel ... images show much vivid colours in his postings than normal. It may be due to his camera colour settings. It is better to keep it at normal for correct colour reproduction. Location: Lakeside, Pokhara, Nepal Date: 27 July 2015 Elevation: 2700 ft. Is it possible to ID without flowers? This should be a Geodorum, not possible to confirm without flower but could be Geodorum densiflorum. Thank you ... Looks like even without flower !
