Jewel orchid (Ludisia discolor)
Description
The Jewel Orchid or Ludisia discolor is unlike all other Orchids we grow in our homes, because it's prized for its foliage rather than its flowers. It's simple and easy to care for and does still produce lovely white little flowers to give it a little more interest than other houseplants which are only grown for their foliage.
