ID needed please???
I previously posted a pic of this plant & it was named Angraecum sedifolium
& Paul Simon noticed the error. I agree with him that it looks like a Jumellea. Should be easy to find. There are so many flowers that look the same. I have attached a page (made in MS Word 2007 & change to '97) some info & pics of plant & closeup of flower . Any guesses or help would me much appreciated. Cheers Wendy |

Jumellea cyrtoceras, perhaps?
From Jay's site: Found E Madagascar as a small sized epiphyte with an erect, cylindrical stem carrying many, leathery, ligulate leaves that blooms on an axillary, short, single flowered inflorescence enveloped basally by a few sheaths and obtuse bract. http://www.orchidspecies.com/jumcyrtoceras.htm -- Ray Barkalow - First Rays Orchids - www.firstrays.com Plants, Supplies.

No, the inflorescence isn't developed basally.

Thanks Kathy, that's the trouble I need to learn the terminology & botanical
words & remember them? When I read the descriptions of the orchids on Jay Pfahls site, I think I'm reading another language! I have just printed out a list of 60 Jumelleas & there are quite a few with the same looking flower. Research, research, research. Wondering if there is someone I could send my pics to that may know. Maybe Hoosiers? Cheers Wendy "K Barrett" wrote in message . .. No, the inflorescence isn't developed basally. K "Wendy7" wrote in message ... Thanks Ray, sounds & looks like the real McCoy.

Yeah I'd go with Hoosiers, they took what's-his-face's collection. I think
your plant is in "Group 6: plants with elongated stems; the spur 10 cm or longer (18 species)" (quoting from Joyce Stewart's 'Angraecoid Orchids' book) And that's about as far as I can take it. The last time I tried taxonomy at home I got very confused and was very wrong. So I'll leave it to the real taxonomists. My best guess is J comorensis based only on the fact that you have one and its the commonest one, but what do I know? Ask Hoosiers. K Barrett "Wendy7" wrote in message ...
