Orchids 0 views
The leaves are slanted and upright, broad across the middle, with sharp pointed tips and a jade-green color. The bud sheaths are white-green, with few fine purple veins. Both the outer petals and the inner perianth segments of the flower bear purple markings; the lower portion of the two lateral petals is tongue-like (lipoid), the petals form a straight-line shoulder, and the petal tips curl backward, sometimes with the inner perianth segments also becoming tongue-like.

The "Xiaodie" flower is relatively large, about 5 cm or more, with a relatively tall stalk, 10 cm or more, more than half transformed into the lipoid form, and its posture is quite good too! It is a pity that the color contrast is not strong enough; overall, it is a good old variety.
