This species is known for its striking, lance-shaped leaves and delicate, fragrant blooms that appear in late spring. It thrives in cool, moist environments and is often found in mountainous forests and rocky soils. Due to its limited distribution and habitat specificity, it is considered a vulnerable species. Conservation efforts are crucial to protect this botanical gem from threats like habitat loss and climate change.
