Trichopilia (Greek, hair and cap; the anther is concealed under a cap surmounted by three tufts of hair). Orchidaceae. Handsome orchids, usually grown in pots, although epiphytal.

Pseudobulbs crowded on the short rhizome, flattened and often elongate, 1-lvd., surrounded with dry scales at the base: lvs. large, solitary, erect, fleshy, keeled: fls. abundantly produced on short, nodding or decumbent scapes; sepals and petals narrow, spreading, often twisted; labellum large, forming the most conspicuous part of the fl., united with the column below, lateral lobes convolute, middle lobe spreading; anther bent over; pollinia on a triangular caudicle; clinandrum fimbriately winged.—About 20 species, ranging from Mex. to S. Amer. The fls. keep fresh a long time, both on the plant and when cut. They need an intermediate or greenhouse temperature. If grown too warm, they suffer. Prop. by division.

T. Gouldii - T. suavis X T. fragrans. — T. Hennisiana, Kranzl. Fls. very fragrant, pure white, with 2 zones of golden yellow on lip. Colombia. CH
