    Bought this plant a couple of months ago without knowing anything about it. I liked the leaves and stems looked like one of my terrestrial orchids. Well it has now bloomed and has everyone stumped. Very mysterious, beautiful almost black with many tendrils and inside the main bloom are numerous sub-blooms??secondary?? need information have been keeping in large clay pot in shade, it has four new plants starting off original. Please help.

    Hello Lila in Budapest. Thank you for the very prompt response. Colloquial name is "Bat Flower" found it by Googling the scientific name.
