Very nice series of photos. Wonderful to see these plants in their natural habitat.

Thank you so much for sharing these pictures. Could you give us a few details on how they grow (orientation to the sun, light quality, temperatures etc)? I know that a lot of this has been covered in books, but it would be great to have a proper first hand observation.
 
I just can share the photo that I make and all are come from Viet nam forest.

Some information a bout their habitat: They grow in lam-stone forest and it just a bout 100-200m above from sea level (and some other in higher areas)
All most of them like the light, they grow face to the north (so the sun not come direct to them except at lunch time).
Temperature from 20-40 oC.
