Spathoglottis (Greek, spathe and tongue; said to refer to the shape of the lip). Orchidaceae. Plants agreeing with Bletia in habit and form of inflorescence; terrestrial orchids of the Old-World tropics, mostly with numerous flowers.
 +
 
 +
Pseudobulbs broadly conic, 1-3-leaved: leaves elongate, long-petioled, narrow, plicate, articulated: scape lateral, bearing large flowers in a terminal raceme: sepals free, subequal; petals similar or broader and longer; labellum not spurred, lateral lobes somewhat convolute, middle lobe clawed; column slender; pollinia 8.— About 40 species in Asia, Australia, and the Malay Islands.
 +
 
 +
Spathoglottises grow best at the warm end of the cattleya or Brazilian house in a moist shady location. Pot culture suits them best, and the compost should consist principally of equal parts peat fiber and sphagnum moss with a little chopped sod added; about half of the pot should be devoted to drainage. They all require a liberal amount of water when growing, but only enough to keep them in sound condition when at rest. They are rather hard to increase by division.

S. aureo-Vieillardii, Hort., is a hybrid between this and S. aurea. Fls. pale chrome-yellow, with the sepals slightly and the petals profusely dotted with crimson, the tips of the lobes of the lip rich crimson. G.C. III. 23:309. G.M. 41:308.—S. Colmanii -S. aurea var. x S. aureo-Vieillardii.—S. edinensis -S. Fortunei x S. pulchra. —S. Hardingiana, Par. & Reichb. f. Scapes basal, up to 15 in. tall: fls. numerous, rose-purple or pale lilac, about 1 in. diam.; sepals lanceolate: petals linear-lanceolate; lip linear, auricled at base, with 2 yellow brown-spotted tubercles. N. Burma. B.M. 7964.—S. kewensis –S. plicata var. Micholitzii X S. Vieillardii.—S. Kimballiana, Hook., is often regarded as a variety of S. aurea, from which it differs in having the backs of the sepals mottled with red-brown, the crest glabrous, and narrower lvs. B.M. 7443.—S. plicata var. Micholitzii is advertised by Sander. Fls. amethyst-color, with the segms. broader than in the type. Habit more dwarf.—S. Southeriana. F. M. Bailey. Fls. in upright spikes, more than 1 in. across; sepals and petals light rose-color. Queensland.—S. zebrine –S. Fortunei x S. plicata.
