Read about Schomburgkia in the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture 

Schomburgkia (named for Dr. Schomburgk, naturalist and geographer, who explored British Guiana). Orchidaceae. Orchids with the habit of cattleyas or laelias, except that they are less compact.

Pseudobulbs long, fusiform, bearing several brown scales and 2-3 leathery lvs. at the summit: fl.-sts. from the top of the pseudobulbs, sometimes very long, bearing a terminal raceme or panicle of showy fls.: fls. like those of Laelia except that the sepals and petals are narrow and undulate and the labellum does not completely envelop the column; labellum always evidently 3-lobed.—About 15 species, in Trop. Amer.

Give schomburgkias plenty of heat and a light place near the glass, which should be slightly shaded during the hot summer months. Provide freely of water in the growing season. Rest them in a temperature of 55°. S. tibicinis and S. Lyonsii are to be classed amongst the showy easily grown orchids resembling laelias.

S. Lueddemanii, Prill. Fls. brown, with the lip and column purple, and the crest and anther yellow; sepals and petals linear-oblong, obtuse, manifestly undulate, 1 1/2 - 1 3/4 in. long; lip 3-lobed, 2/3 in. long, the middle lobe ovate-orbicular, apiculate, about 1/4 in. long, the edges incurved near apex. Venezuela. B.M. 8427. — S. Sanderiana, Rolfe. Fls. rose-carmine; sepals lanceolate-oblong, 1 1/2 in. long; petals oblanceolate-oblong; lip obscurely 3-lobed, 1 1/2 in. long, the front lobe broadly rounded obtuse, crisped-undulate. Origin unknown. J.H. III. 51:383. — S. Thomsoniana, Reichb. f. Sepals and petals linear-oblong, 1 1/2 in. long, cream-white passing to yellow at apex, the sepals undulate, the petals crisped; lip 3-lobed, the middle lobe oblong, emarginate, much crisped, deep purple, with a yellow disk. Cayman Isls. B.M. 7815. — S. Wallisii. Reichb. f. Resembling S. Lueddemanii. Lip with broad obtuse side lobes, and very acute front lobe, all brown at apex.CH
