Peristylus biermannianus is a terrestrial orchid from the Himalayas, grown mainly by specialist orchid enthusiasts rather than as a common garden or houseplant. It grows from underground tubers, so the key to success is a cool, moist growing season followed by a rest period.
Peristylus biermannianus is a species of flowering plant in the family Orchidaceae. It is native to Nepal and the eastern Himalayas.
