Single stemmed hooded orchid, multiple buds, stem coming from single leaf in the ground. Other leaves in ground nearby, possibly attached to runners. I would like to know if each leaf will produce a flower.
Each leaf will produce flowers but not every year. The leaves grow from a bulb-like structure propagated by seeds in the pods generated from the fertilised flowers.
