A perennial plant of the orchid family (APG classification: Orchidaceae). The entire plant is glabrous, with stems 20-40 cm tall. The leaves are oblong, 3-7 cm long, and 3-5 leaves arranged alternately on the stem. In April and May, the terminal inflorescence produces several white flowers. The bracts are usually shorter than the ovary. The flowers are 5-7 mm in diameter and do not open flat. The base of the lip petal forms a very short spur, 1-2 mm long. It grows in grasslands and under forests on low mountains, and is distributed from Hokkaido to Kyushu, the Korean Peninsula, Taiwan, China, and the Himalayas. It is in the same genus as the golden orchid. The variety, the Kugenumaran, does not have a well-developed spur, and the Yushunran has poorly developed leaves. [Ken Inoue May 21, 2019] [Reference item] |The leaves are oblong and there are 3 to 5 of them. From April to May, several white flowers bloom on the terminal inflorescence. ©Seishohmaru "> Silver orchid Source: Shogakukan Encyclopedia Nipponica About Encyclopedia Nipponica Information | Legend |
