Coelogyne Lindl. 1821, is a genus of about 200 sympodial epiphytes from the family orchidaceae, distributed across India, China, Indonesia and the Fiji islands. Pseudobulbs vary in size and may be closely or widely spaced along the rhizome. The wide distribution of this genus has resulted in a wide variety of temperature variation from species to species, some requiring cool to cold conditions to grow and bloom reliably, while others need decidedly warmer temperatures to achieve the same. See genus (mathematics) for the use of the term in mathematics. ... Orchids with sympodial growth have a specialized lateral growth pattern in which the terminal bud dies. ... An example of an epiphyte assemblage of orchids and bromeliads in a garden setting The term epiphyte refers to any plant that grows upon or attached to another living plant. ... Genera Over 800 See List of Orchidaceae genera. ... The pseudobulb is a storage organ derived from the part of a stem between two leaf nodes. ... In botany, a rhizome is a horizontal, usually underground stem of a plant that often sends out roots and shoots from its nodes. ... In biology, a species is, loosely speaking, a group of related organisms that share a more or less distinctive form and are capable of interbreeding. ...


Inflorescences of often very showy flowers may arise either from the apex of the newly completed pseudobulb at the end of the growing season as in Coelogyne fimbriata, or may precede the new growth in early spring, as in Coelogyne cristata. The typical colour range of this genus is white, through tawny brown to green, and occasionally peachy tones. All species have four pollinia. An inflorescence is a group or cluster of flowers on a branch of a plant. ... Wildflowers A flower is the reproductive organ of those plants classified as angiosperms (flowering plants; Division Magnoliophyta). ...


The cooler growing species such as Coelogyne fimbriata, Coelogyne ovalis, Colegyne fuliginosa, Coelogyne cristata, Coelogyne flaccida, Coelogyne nitida require a decided rest period during winter during which they receive no feed, very little water (enough to prevent pseudobulbs shrivelling), cool to cold temperatures and high light. These conditions seem to aid flowering in spring for some growers, though others report that more constant conditions can also produce regular flowering.

Coelogyne 'South Carolina' (Coelogyne pandurata x Coelogyne Burfordiense), sometimes called "the fl orchid" because of the fl coloration of the heavily patterned and structured lip.
The traditional taxonomy of the genus Coelogyne is still disputed.
Molecular data however show that Coelogyne is paraphyletic and should be reorganised, according to the study by Barbara Gravendeel et al.
