with panicles transversely barred with brownish-crimson, the petals yellow with 
very few spots, and the lip margined with reddish brown. 
The genus is one of the most majestic of tropical Orchids, but the plants 
require a considerable amount of room to develop themselves properly, and 
therefore they are not so widely cultivated as their merits deserve. The present 
“species and C. Andersonii are the best known, but there are about half-a-dozen 
others, not including Cyrtopera, which has been wrongly united with the genus.
