Morphological characteristics

Cymbidium (the original variety)

Cymbidium is a terrestrial herb; the pseudobulb is not obvious. The leaves are 5-8 pieces, band-shaped, strong erect, 25-80 cm long and (4-) 7-12 mm wide. The base is often folded in half to form a v-shape, the veins are transparent, and the edges often have thick serrations.

Scape protruding from the outermost leaf axils at the base of the leaf cluster, nearly erect or slightly curved, 35-50 (-80) cm long, covered with multiple long sheaths; raceme with 5-11 or more flowers; buds Sheet linear-lanceolate, the bottom one is longer than the ovary, the middle and upper part is 1-2 cm long, about 1/2 of the length of the pedicel and ovary, at least more than 1/3; the pedicel and ovary are 2-2.6 cm long; The flowers are often light yellow-green, with purplish red spots on the lips, and fragrance; sepals are nearly lanceolate-oblong or narrowly obovate, 2.53.5 cm long and 6-8 mm wide; petals are similar to sepals, often slightly shorter and wider; The lip is oblong ovoid, 2-2.5 cm long, 3-lobed; the lateral lobes are erect, with small papillae or fine hairs; the middle lobes are long, strongly outwardly curved, with obvious, shiny papillae, and the edges are often wrinkled Shaped; 2 longitudinal folds on the labial disc extend from the base of the base to the base of the middle lobe, the upper end is inclined inward and merges to form a short tube; the pillar is 1.2-1.6 cm long, slightly curved forward, with narrow wings on both sides ; 4 pollen clusters, in 2 pairs, broadly ovoid.

The capsule is narrowly oval, 5-5.5 cm long and 2 cm wide. Flowering period from March to May.
