The present plant is a little different from the Chinese in 

 the shape of lips. In our plant, two lateral nerves of the middle 

 lobe of the lip are strongly crested which unite together at the 

 apex, while the central nerve is very thin and not crested. In 

 the Chinese plant, the middle lobe of the lip has 3-5 nerves which 

 are equally crested.
