This species was first described in 1896 by John Lindley and occurs in Myanmar, Thailand, Malaysia, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Hainan China, Borneo, Bangladesh and the Philippines. ''Rhynchostylis'' differs from ''Vanda'' by the one-lobed lip. ''Rhynchostylis'' are also commonly called foxtail orchids because of their long, thin, densely packed inflorescences that get up to with sweetly fragrant blooms. The inflorescences appear in autumn and winter. Due to the wide distribution of ''Rhynchostylis gigantea'' there is a range of different clones: flowers vary slightly in shape and colour (from white to dark red, with spotted forms). Unlike ''Vanda'' species, they need indirect light. ''Rhynchostylis gigantea'' are best grown in a wood-slat basket with little or no potting material and will grow massive fleshy roots entangled throughout the basket if given uniform water and fertilizer. The plants are warm- to hot-growing. it is the state flower of assam. == External links == * * 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「Rhynchostylis gigantea」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
