Chysis lœvis
Botanical illustration of Chysis lœvis or the smooth-lipped Chysis. Depicted as a single specimen with pendulous stems suspended from a branch. The main stem issues broad dark green leaves along the length, arranged alternately. A single raceme with a handful of bright yellow flowers issues from the base of an emerging stem and hangs down. A detail of the lip with waved edges can be seen in the lower-left hand corner.
