Pholidota imbricata Hook. f.

It is found on trees and karst formations in various regions, including southwest Sichuan, Yunnan, and eastern Xizang in China, as well as throughout the Himalayas, Sri Lanka, Southeast Asia, New Guinea, and Australia.

Phytochemical analysis of the Necklace orchid has identified a compound called imbricatin, which is a 9,10-dihydrophenanthrene derivative.

In traditional herbal usage, the Necklace orchid has various medicinal applications. On the Malabar Coast of India, crushed roots are applied to the head or the entire plant is applied to the soles of the feet to relieve fever. A poultice made from the entire plant is used on the loins to facilitate childbirth, induce menstrual flow, and promote diuresis. The fruit of the orchid has been used as a sedative. Both the fruit and pseudobulbs of the plant have been utilized in the treatment of ulcers. The Necklace orchid is also prepared as a tonic and used for relieving rheumatic pain. In Nepal, juice from the pseudobulbs is applied to boils or over the navel to alleviate navel, abdominal, and rheumatic pain.

It can be found in Sri Lanka, India, Nepal, and Myanmar, often near human settlements. This orchid has a wide tolerance for sunlight, withstanding varying levels of sunlight ranging from 27% to 93%, as well as high temperatures of 26-31 degrees Celsius and low relative humidity of 31-44%. Phytochemical analysis of Zanjabeel-e-shami has revealed the presence of alkaloids, tannins, resin, saponin, beta and gamma sitosterols, fatty oil, and coloring agents. Extracts from the entire plant have exhibited anti-acetylcholine and anti-arthritic effects in rats. Two anti-inflammatory compounds, hepcosame (C27 H56) and octacosonol (C28 H58 O), have been identified in this orchid. Additionally, a phenanthropyran called tessallatin has been isolated from Vanda tessellata. In traditional herbal usage, Zanjabeel-e-shami has been mentioned by ancient Sanskrit writers under the names Rasna and Gandhanakul. It is described as bitter, aromatic, and beneficial for rheumatism. Rasna was traditionally used to treat nervous disorders, rheumatism, and scorpion stings. In India, a liquid extract or syrup prepared from the orchid was used to address dyspeptic conditions, bronchial affections, and rheumatic fever. Ear drops made from the roots were also used. The entire plant was employed in treating fractures, while the roots were considered a female contraceptive. The leaves were believed to prevent wounds from becoming purulent sores and were used to alleviate tearing and earache, either alone or in combination with aerial roots and neem oil. Zanjabeel-e-shami was also employed by herbalists to address secondary syphilis and for snake and scorpion bites. The Dongria Kandha tribe of the Niyamgiri Hills in southwest Orissa uses a decoction of the root in honey for the treatment of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Zanjabeel-e-shami, or Vanda tessellata, is characterized by its strong floral scent, primarily composed of linalool (23%), methyl benzoate (61.5%), cinnamic aldehyde (0.1%), and methyl cinnamate (4.6%).
