Lycaste
''Lycaste'', abbreviated as Lyc in horticultural trade, is a genus of orchids that contains about 30 species with egg-shaped pseudobulbs and thin, plicate (pleated) leaves.
== Description ==
''Lycaste'' flowers, like all orchid blooms, have three petals and three sepals. The petals are typically yellow, white, or orange, and the sepals are yellow, orange, green, or reddish brown. The petals and sepals may be marked sparsely or densely with red, reddish purple, purple, or reddish brown spots. The lip (ventral petal) may be very similar to the other two petals, as in ''Lycaste aromatica'' or ''Lycaste brevispatha'', or colored quite distinctively, as in several subspecies and varieties of ''Lycaste macrophylla''. Most ''Lycaste'' flowers are medium in size, averaging about 5 to 10 cm, but ''Lyc. schilleriana'' is 16-18 cm across. Some ''Lycaste'' blooms have a unique fragrance - the scent of ''Lyc. aromatica'' has been variously described as cinnamon or clove. The blooms of the species ''Lyc. cochleata'', ''consobrina'', and ''cruenta'' also have a pleasant scent.
