Encyclia adenocaula is a species of epiphytic orchid of light purple flowers, native to forests in Mexico.
Description
The orchid species is a small to medium-sized, cool growing, epiphytic species, with clustered, ovoid to subconical pseudobulbs carrying 2 to 3, towards the apex, strap-shaped to linear, acute or obtuse apically, gradually narrowing below into the base leaves. It blooms in the summer on an apical, to a 3 foot+ [90 cm+] long, paniculate, many flowered inflorescence that has a warty rachis, pedicel and ovary, as well as long-lasting, fragrant flowers.[1]
The flowers are rosy-pink to magenta, star-shaped flowers with narrow petals.[2] The long pointed lip has dark pink markings and an interesting winged column.[3][4]
