It is a trailing or pendulous epiphyte with round or oval, convex, firm, light green foliage. Under good growing conditions, it produces umbels of small, star-shaped flowers ranging from almost white to reddish, with a red and yellow corona. The flowers are fragrant, with a sweet note. Its growth habit makes it suitable for hanging baskets or growing on a support.
