'''''Neuwiedia''''' is a [[genus]] of primitive [[orchid]]s ([[family (biology)|family]] Orchidaceae), comprising 9 terrestrial [[species]].
+
+
The type species is ''Neuwiedia veratrifolia'' Blume 1834
+
+
The genus is distributed in shaded, damp areas from Malaysia, Borneo, Java to the Philippines, New Guinea and southwest of the [[Pacific]]. Like the genus ''[[Apostasia]]'' of the same subfamily, this genus is noted for having 3 fertile [[stamen]]s instead of only one as in the case of most orchids. Because of this primitive characteristics, the genus was considered by some as not being true orchids.
+
+
The genus was named by [[Carl Ludwig von Blume]] in honor of [[Prince Maximilian of Wied-Neuwied]] (1782-1859).
+
+
These primitive orchids are hairy, tall herbs without rhizomes. They grow long, plicate [[Leaf|leaves]]. They produce an unbranched, erect, terminal inflorescence bearing usually white or yellow, nodding flowers.

Neuwiedia (named for Prince Maximilian von Newied). Orchidaceae. A half-dozen Malayan terrestrial orchids with short caudex and leafy sts.: Lvs. lengthened, stalked, strong-nerved: fls. small, mostly white or yellow, sessile or nearly so, in a bracteate terminal raceme or spike; sepals and petals free and mostly similar, connivent or spreading; lip somewhat spatulate, similar to petals; column short. Little cult.; require conditions of warmhouse paphiopedilum. N. Lindleyi, Rolfe, has primrose-yellow decurved fls. 1 in. long: 3-4 ft.: Lvs. many, 1-2 ft. long, oblanceolate, membranaceous. B.M. 7368. N. Griffithii, Reichb. f.. has white deflexed pubescent fls. in a short spike; 16 in.: Lvs. 4-10 in. long, elliptic-lanceolate, acuminate. B.M. 7425.
