Cremastra appendiculata
is a perennial found in the shade of a tree in a hilly district.
It affords pseudobulbs, arranged in a line from new to old, and the
last one creates a single large oblong, tapering-to-a-point leaf and
a flower stalk at the base. It blooms in May-June. After the flower,
the leaf dies, following the appearance of a new plate, which is to
go dormant in Autumn. 30-50cm in height, the peduncle bears a raceme
of 10-20 long, narrow, light greenish-brown, partly reddish-purple
flowers. Bloom time: May-June. |
