Orchid ‘Coelogyne Nitida’

Coelogyne nitida is a plant species from the orchid family. This plant produces slender, wrinkled pseudobulbs that could grow up to a maximum length of 10 cm. From every pseudobulb, two lanceolate to egg-shaped leaves with eight prominent nerves arise. This orchid flowers mostly in spring, together with the growth of a new pseudobulb. The plant creates a pendant flower stalk, reaching a maximum length of around 20 cm, carrying up to 8 flowers. The flowers open simultaneously. They have a bright white color, with a golden to yellow colored core, including main parts of the labellum. The scent is somewhat musky. Propagating this orchid is mainly done by separating older plants. Make sure every division contains at least three pseudobulbs.
