Morphology of <I>Spathoglottis pubescens </I> Lindl.

Abstract

Morphology of Spathoglottis pubescens Lindl. was studied. Characteristics of the bulb, leaf, inflorescence and floret were recorded focussing on detailed characters of floral parts. Records of variations in petal shape, especially the lips, of the plants distributed in clusters in the wild were also made, for the benefit of parental stock selection for further varietal improvement.
