Epidendrum –
\nThere are about 1,000 species of highly varied, evergreen orchids, in this genus. The genus includes epiphytes, lithophytes, and terrestrials. They are wide spread in tropical areas, from Florida to Argentina, some thriving in montane forest to an altitude of 3,250′ feet high. Most produce cylindrical, leafy stems that may be either tall and reed like or short and fleshy, others have pseudobulbs. The leaves vary greatly. The flowers are produces usually in terminal, umbel like racemes or panicles, which are a continuation of the leafy stems, or they are occasionally borne from the bases.
