CCELIA (Greek, koilos, hollow: referring to the pol- 

 len masses). Orchiddcec&y tribe Vdnde(e. Six species of 

 central and South American epiphytic orchids, divided 

 into 2 strongly marked groups with widely different 

 kinds of inflorescence. O. vmvrostachya is a type of 

 the first section, with long racemes of numerous small, 

 horizontal fls., which are much exceeded by the long 

 spreading bracts, and the base of the column short. 

 C. hella is typical of the second section, with the fls. 

 few, larger, erect, in groups of about 3, longer than their 

 bracts, and the base of the column produced to twice its 

 own length, which gives the fls. a tubular appearance. 

 Ccelias are of minor importance. They grow best in 

 pots of peat and sphagnum, with a little charcoal.
