The plant is characterized by its olive-green flowers, and it tends to bloom throughout the year, with a peak in flowering during the rainy seasons associated with monsoons.
In traditional Thai medicine, various parts of the Bulbophyllum flabellum-veneris orchid are used for medicinal purposes.

Additionally, the entire plant of Bulbophyllum flabellum-veneris is employed in traditional medicine to address liver dysfunction. The liver is a vital organ responsible for numerous physiological processes, including detoxification, metabolism, and nutrient storage. When the liver's normal function is compromised, it can lead to various health issues.
Traditional healers in Thailand utilize the plant to promote liver health and alleviate liver-related ailments. The specific mode of application and preparation of the plant for medicinal use may vary in traditional practices.
As with many traditional herbal remedies, scientific research on the medicinal properties and potential therapeutic benefits of Bulbophyllum flabellum-veneris is limited. Further studies would be necessary to understand the active compounds and mechanisms of action responsible for the plant's purported medicinal effects.
It is essential to exercise caution and consult with healthcare professionals before using any traditional remedies, as some may interact with existing medications or have adverse effects on certain individuals. Traditional medicinal practices should be approached with respect for local cultural traditions and knowledge.
Overall, the Bulbophyllum flabellum-veneris orchid holds cultural and traditional significance in Southeast Asia, where it is valued for its potential medicinal properties in the treatment of oedema and liver-related conditions. As with all herbal remedies, further research is needed to fully understand its therapeutic potential and safety profile.

Anacamptis morio ssp. picta 
Tubers are harvested in Iran for use as salep, a health drink and also considered to be super food. In Europe, Anacamptis species are protected.

Anacamptis morio ssp. picta is a subspecies of Anacamptis morio, commonly known as the Green-winged Orchid. It is a terrestrial orchid that grows in various regions, including Iran and parts of Europe. The tubers of this orchid are harvested in Iran for use as salep, a traditional health drink that is also considered to be a superfood due to its nutritional properties.
Salep has a long history of use in various cultures as a nutritious and energizing beverage. It is made from the ground tubers of certain orchid species, including Anacamptis morio ssp. picta. The tubers are dried and ground into a fine powder, which is then mixed with milk or water to make a thick, creamy drink. Salep is rich in carbohydrates, proteins, and other nutrients, making it a valuable source of sustenance, especially in regions where food supplies may be limited.
In the past, there was a belief that salep contained the greatest amount of nourishment in the smallest bulk, leading to the proposal that it should be included in a ship's provisions to protect against famine during sea voyages. However, it's important to note that salep is obtained from the tubers of wild orchids, and the overharvesting of these tubers has led to a decline in orchid populations in many regions. As a result, Anacamptis species and other orchids are now protected in Europe to conserve their populations.
Apart from its use in making salep, orchid tubers have also been used to feed weak children who are cut off from other food supplies. In certain traditional practices, the tubers may be considered as a source of nourishment during times of scarcity or for medicinal purposes.
Given the ecological importance of orchids and the conservation concerns surrounding their harvesting, it is crucial to approach the use of orchid tubers and salep with caution and sustainability. Sustainable harvesting practices and efforts to protect orchid populations are necessary to preserve these valuable plant species for future generations.

Liparis nakaharae Hayata
Chinese name: Aochunyangersuan
Liparis nakaharae, known as Aochunyangersuan in Chinese, is a species of orchid native to Taiwan. In Taiwanese folk medicine, it is believed to have medicinal properties and is used to treat cancer.
However, it's important to note that the use of Liparis nakaharae or any other herbal remedy for cancer treatment should not be considered a substitute for conventional medical treatments. Cancer is a complex and serious disease, and the treatment should be guided by healthcare professionals with expertise in oncology.
Herbal remedies, including those derived from orchids, may have potential health benefits, but their efficacy and safety in treating cancer have not been scientifically proven. Cancer treatment should be evidence-based and rely on well-established medical therapies such as surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, or a combination of these approaches.
It's essential for individuals diagnosed with cancer to work closely with their healthcare team to develop a personalized treatment plan that best suits their specific condition and needs. Discussing alternative treatments, such as herbal remedies, with healthcare professionals is essential to ensure that they do not interfere with conventional treatments or cause any adverse effects.

It's important to note that traditional herbal remedies, including those made from Liparis rheedii, should be used with caution and under the guidance of a qualified healthcare professional. While some traditional uses of plants may have therapeutic benefits, their efficacy and safety may not be scientifically proven. Therefore, it is essential to consult with healthcare experts before using any herbal remedies, especially for serious conditions like cholera. Conventional medical treatments should not be replaced or delayed by using traditional remedies without proper medical supervision.
