Olantanthera florentii is a perennial orchid found in forest
beds; the stems, somewhat thin, 20-40cm in height, have green,
vertical ridges on them. Leaves, 2 in number, each opposite at the
base, are oblong, measuring 5-12cm in length, glossy, and the
margins shrunk in a wavy way. On the stems, there exist some
small-scale-like leaves in an alternate phyllotaxis way. Green
flowers, 5-10 in number, bloom in a racemose arrangement on the stem
tops. Sepals and petals are approximately 5cm in length, lips about
1cm, spurs 1.5-2cm long, curving downwards. |
