description_en: Hybrid genus of epiphytic, evergreen orchids derived from crosses between Odontoglossum and Cochlioda; they are vegetatively indistinguishable from Odontoglossum. They have ovoid, compressed pseudobulbs, each with 2 linear, mid-green leaves, 20cm (8in) long, at the tip. Erect to arching racemes, 30-45cm (12-18in) tall, of 12 or more rounded to star-shaped flowers, 8cm (3in) across, often with ruffled or crisped margins, arise from the bases of the pseudobulbs at almost any time of the year, most commonly in spring. The flowers range in colour from pastel shades to deep reds, and are often spotted or marked red or yellow.
