Stem from one to two feet high, leaves ovate, oblong; growing pretty close 
together near the bottom; decreasing in size upwards, verging into linear lan- 
ceodlate. Flowers very fragrant, appear towards the close of the rains, of a 
greenish white colour; lower lip entire so far, and then split into 3 segments, of 
equal length, the 2 side ones broadest, all with truncated ends. From below
