''Phaius tancarvilleae'' is a species of orchid widespread in the Indian Subcontinent, New Guinea, China, Japan, Southeast Asia, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Australia and certain islands of the Pacific. It is also naturalised in Hawaii, Panama, the West Indies and the US State of Florida〔(Kew World Checklist of Selected Plant Families, ''Phaius tankervilleae'' (Banks) Blume )〕 In Australia it is found as far south as Yamba, New South Wales〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=Australian Native Plants Society )〕〔information sign next to ''Phaius tancarvilleae'' at the North Coast Regional Botanic Garden, Australia〕 and further north in tropical Queensland. It is listed as endangered with possible extinction within the country.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts )〕 Common names include greater swamp-orchid, swamp lily, swamp orchid,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=USDA GRIN Taxonomy )〕 nun's-hood orchid, nun's orchid and veiled orchid. In 1778, John Fothergill brought this orchid back from China to England. Later, Joseph Banks named the plant in honour of Lady Emma Tankerville, as the orchid flowered in her greenhouse at Walton-on-Thames near London.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=The orchids of Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands )〕〔(Gifts from the Gardens of China ), By Jane Kilpatrick, ISBN 0-7112-2630-X, accessed 10 June 2008〕〔http://www.philipmould.com/catalogue.php?sid=2544&p=〕 The species name refers to the origin of the married name of Emma, the Countess Tankerville. That being the town of Tancarville, in Normandy, France.〔http://www.killerplants.com/plant-of-the-week/20030421.asp〕 ''Phaius tancarvilleae'' is a terrestrial orchid. The large leaves arise from bulbs in the ground, and are furrowed. Its inflorescences arise vertically out of the plant and can reach a height of 2 m (7 ft). They bear up to 16 flowers each. The flowers have four petals which are brown on the inside and white on the outside. The central section of the flower is an open tube and mauve and yellow in colour. The species' habitat is swampy forest or grassland.〔 It is threatened by trampling by stock, and being collected illegally by plant collectors, weeds and drainage of its habitat.〔 While rare in parts of its native habitat, it is present in other parts of the world as a naturalised species, including Hawaii〔USFWS. (''Cyanea remyi'' Five-year Review''. ) August 2010. pg 4.〕 and Florida.〔Liu, H. and R. Pemberton. (2010). (Pollination of an invasive orchid, ''Cyrtopodium polyphyllum'' (Orchidaceae), by and invasive oil-collecting bee, ''Centris nitida'', in southern Florida. ) ''Botany'' 88 290-95.〕 == Cultivation == Identification of the ''Phaius'' genus is a particularly challenging and difficult task. Many plants are incorrectly labeled in nurseries or misidentified by professionals and authors. An easily grown plant in cultivation. It prefers semi shade. Propagation is achieved from seed or by the cutting of the base clump of the plant. The large flowers occur in spring.〔 Also, flower stem node propagation brings success. Where after flowering, the scape is either laid whole or in sections on a medium such as ''Sphagnum'' moss or stood in a container of water. Plantlets emerge from the nodes, and when large enough are removed and potted up. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Phaius tancarvilleae」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
