G. hispida

Goodyera hispida is a terrestrial orchid species native to parts of tropical Asia. It is known for its attractive, dark green leaves adorned with distinctive silver or white venation that often forms a network or chevron pattern. The plant typically grows in shaded forest floors. Its inflorescence bears small, white, slightly hairy flowers arranged along an upright spike. Like many in the genus, it is prized by collectors of jewel orchids for its striking foliage rather than its flowers.
