Phalaenopsis gigantea
This Phalaenopsis gigantea Orchid is known locally as Telinga Gajah, literally translated to Elephant Ears. This name is not referring to the flowers but the leafs, which can grow to 2 feet length on mature plant. Phalaenopsis gigantea is endemic to Borneo and is the species of Phalaenopsis with the largest flower.
