Brachionidium Explained

Brachionidium (or cup orchid) is a genus of about 72 species of orchids, found throughout much of tropical America (Central America, the West Indies, and South America as far south as Brazil and Bolivia).[1] [2] [3] [4] The generic name comes from Greek ("little arm") and refers to the protrusions on the stigma.
