	Laelia
		Laelia is a small genus of eleven species from the orchid family (Orchidaceae)
		Laelia is one of the most important and popular orchid genera, because of the beautiful flowers, their genetic properties and because they are fairly easy in culture.
		Laelia speciosa is a high-elevation plant, preferring sunny, dry and cool conditions.

	Orchids of The World - Laelia
		Dedicated probably to Laelia, one of the Vestal Virgins, or perhaps from the name borne by females in the Roman patrician family of Laelius.
		The orchids found are mainly terrestrial, the epiphytic orchids (such as the laelias) confined to the narrow stretches of forest and scrub bordering the rivers and lakes which often extend for hundreds of kilometres.
		This Laelia grows in a harsh environment indeed; on Vellozia (Canela da Ema - ostrich legs) shrubs fully exposed to the elements on the summit of the Serra da Sincora.

	Laelia orchideeën zijn iets makkelijker te houden dan Cattleya soorten - Tuinkrant.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Laelia is een orchideëngeslacht met ongeveer 30 soorten tropische epifytische (op bomen groeiende) orchideeën, die wijd verbreid zijn in Mexico en Midden-Amerika tot aan Brazilië.
		Laelia is iets makkelijker te houden dan Cattleya maar moeten de gehele zomer licht hebben zonder daarvoor in de volle zon te staan.
		Laelia is veel gekruist met Cattleya en de hieruit ontstane hybriden worden verenigd in Laeliocattleya.

	Laelia Orchid Information
		A lot of Laelia are cool growing plants, but the majority prefer temperatures in the intermediate to warm house.
		Plenty of water and fertiliser is the norm during the growing season, with less during the winter months.
		Laelia flower at any time of the year depending on the species, but with a tendency towards spring with the majority.

	Laelia anceps hybrid - Orchidaceae
		Laelia anceps hybrids are closely related to the genus Cattleya.
		Sometimes laelias are hard to distinguish from cattleyas, their differentiation lies in the number of pollinia; laelias have eight (arranged in two set of four), cattleyas have only four.
		Propagation: Laelia anceps hybrids are propagated by removal of backbulbs in spring.

	SBOE - GROWING INSTRUCTIONS - Laelia anceps (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Laelia anceps, a native of Mexico but also occurring more rarely in Guatemala and Honduras, is one of the most common, yet one of the most satisfying orchids.
		Laelia anceps is one of the hardiest for cold tolerance of any of the Cattleya alliance, tolerating reported lows of 22ºF without any damage, and high temperatures over 100ºF rarely trouble it.
		Laelia anceps is one of the more temperature tolerant orchids in cultivation today, making it a natural for outdoor growing in southern California and comparable climates.

	Vivi's Orchid Corner - "Laelia harpophylla" - October 2003
		Brazil is host to a variety of lovely laelias, and the Laelia harpophylla is such a flower.
		Laelia harpophylla generally blooms January - March (southern hemisphere, their summer), however, there were several plants in bloom during the month of October at the WOC in Rio de Janiero.
		Laelia harpophylla is found in the states of Minas Gerais and Espiritu Santo.

	Orchid Societies Council of Victoria Inc
		The Mexican species, Laelia anceps and Laelia gouldiana, are arguably the easiest to grow under cool conditions, especially if you have a shadehouse with a fibreglass roof, so that the plants can be kept fairly dry in winter.
		In its native habitat Laelia anceps grows on tree trunks or branches on the edge of forests at altitudes of 1500-2000 m.
		Laelia anceps can also be grown in a pot, using coarse bark as the potting medium.

	Phil's Orchid World - The Cattleya Alliance Culture - additional information on LAELIAS
		Laelia purpurata is probably the finest plant within this genus, although lobata, crispa and tenebrosa are also most desirable.
		This plant is from the Brazilian prairie habitat, and the notes and cultural recommendations appropriate for that section should be referred to.
		Many of these species come from the Monsoonal Foothill Rainforest habitat, which is subject to the summer monsoon, warm humid summers when the main growth occurs, and cool dry winters when they rest.

	Laelia alvaroana (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Laelia alvaroana is native to Rio de Janeiro State, where it can be found in the Organ Mountains in a relatively small area between Nova Friburgo and Santa Maria Madalena.
		The habitats are rocky slopes facing the sea, at altitudes between 500 and 1000 meters (1600 to 3300 ft.), where the plants grow among shrubby open vegetation.
		The species is closely related to Laelia mixta, which is native from the State of Espírito Santo, but Laelia alvaroana has smaller flowers with orange-yellow flowers instead of pure yellow.

	Novas Laelia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		As chamadas laelias rupículas, como são melhor conhecidas as espécies da seção Parviflorae não param de surpreender.
		Laelia munchowiana é uma adição muito interessante à seção Parviflorae pelo fato de ser a primeira espécie da seção com flores róseas a roxas a aparecer no Espírito Santo, apesar de que sua área dde ocorrência é muito próxima ao Estado de Minas Gerais.
		As plantas desta nova espécie são de três a cinco vezes menores que as de Laelia pfisteri, e as inflorescências abrem as flores em sucessão extremamente longa, de modo que quando secam apresentam marcas de até mais de 20 flores espaçadas.

	Orchid Profile - Laelia anceps - Orchids
		Laelia anceps is one of the easiest of all orchids to grow and flower.
		Laelias are often used in intergeneric crosses with Cattleyas and Brassavolas.
		Laelia anceps add their long stems, beautiful coloration and cold-weather resistance to these crosses.

	Aelia Laelia Crispis
		As Maier notes, the mounds represented the persistance of the old cults despite Christianization, a parallel that was not lost to the later practice of alchemists.
		Barnaud calls Aelia 'solar.' presumably a derivation from helios, 'sun.' Laelia he interprets as 'lunar.' Crispus (curly-haired), thinks Maier, comes from the curly hairs which are converted into a 'very fine powder.' Maier obviously has in mind the tincture, the arcane substance.
		With this background in mind Aelia Laelia, however it was misconstrued by Jung (although hardly by Maier and Bernaud) is undone as nonsense (all my references to the Florealia and Lel and Po-Lel are drawn from the work of Jacob Grimm).

	Vivi's Orchid Corner - "Laelia purpurata coerulea" - April 2002
		Laelia purpurata coerulea is a Brazilian species that typically blooms Spring to Summer.
		This species, Laelia purpurata coerulea, is known for its bluish tinge.
		The Laelia purpurata coerulea is generally a taller plant and can grow up to 16- 18 cm in height.

	Laelia Purpurata p.2
		In this respect, these large-flowered Brazilian Laelias are more closely related to the large-flowered labiata-type Cattleyas than Cattleya labiata is to the bifoliate cut-lip Cattleya species, where lip and other flower distortions do occur in their hybrids.
		Laelia purpurata is without doubt one of the finest of all cultivated orchids.
		Laelia purpurata has large flowers, 6 to 8 inches (15–20 cm) across, and there are usually four or five flowers on a spike.

	Brazilian Orchids - Laelia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		According to the proposal made by Lou Menezes (in her book "Laelia Purpurata"), Laelia purpurata, which flowers are completely white or with the throat presenting a yellow coloration of varied intensity, should be considered as variety virginalis.
		Still according to the same author, the variety alba, settled by Veitch, describes a plant with white flowers and the surface of the lip pale pink veined.
		Segundo proposto por Lou Menezes (em seu livro Laelia Purpurata), a Laelia purpurata com flores completamente brancas ou com a garganta do labelo apresentando uma coloração amarela de intensidade variada, deve ser considerada como variedade virginalis.

		Laelia autumnalis, an orchid, in the Conservatory at Cambridge University Botanic Garden.
		Most of the houses in the glasshouse range at Cambridge University Botanic Garden house rather static collections, with each house being devoted to a different sort of climate, but the Conservatory is used to show off whatever plants are currently at their best - often the same houseplants as are available in garden centres.
		Not all are common houseplants though, and there is a nice display of Lachenalia (Winter flowering bulbs), and of course the Laelia pictured here.

	Orchids of Brazil. Brazilian orchids
		There is not much variation in color of the segments, except for the intensity of the lavender, and the lip goes from yellow with a white front half to an intense and uniform yellow-orange.
		The species has a fairly large distribution area, considering the rupiculous laelias, and is very common from Belo Horizonte west to the Serra do Caraça and south to Ouro Preto.
		, being one of the small species of rupiculous laelias, evolved to grow under exposed and rather unfriendly conditions to avoid competition.

	Laelia purpurata (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		In the main home state of the species, Santa Catarina, there are fall orchid shows that feature only Laelia purpurata and societies devoted to its culture.
		Perhaps one of the reasons for the interest in Laelia purpurata is the enormous color variation possible within the species.
		There are in excess of a hundred named varieties that include concolor lavender, semi-alba, white, vinicolor, delicata, flared and blue color forms with different patterns and striping within the lip.

	Laelia purpurata
		Remarks: One of the largest flowering of the Laelia Genus.
		Usually producing 3 to 5 flowers per raceme it varies from pure white with some red veins on the lip to pink with deep red lips.
		The plant also grows quite large compared to most Laelias.

	Laelia briegeri Culture
		As one of the rupicolous or rock-growing laelias, Laelia briegeri needs warm days, cool nights, high light and humidity, and a rapidly drying medium.
		Many growers consider them to be among the loveliest of the rupicolous laelias.
		Hybrids using Laelia briegeri may contribute flaring and splashing to the color of the sepals and petals.

	Laelia Purpurata p.1
		For Laelia purpurata, which is really a Cattleya, things even seem to be going from bad to worse, as I see recent efforts to reclassify this wonderful large and showy species as a member of the genus Sophronitis, which is composed of miniatures (Lindleyana, 15[2]:118).
		This orchid, however, came from Brazil, not Mexico, and it had tall pseudobulbs that were similar to the pseudobulbs of a large-flowered Cattleya species.
		He later changed these Brazilian orchids to Laelia crispa and Laelia lobata as he got himself increasingly locked into the concept that the difference between eight and four pollinia was significant enough to justify a new genus.

		Curiously, subsequent papers by Schlechter, Hoehne and others which included discussion of the genus Laelia, specifically section Hadrolaelia (to which L.
		sincorana belongs), completely omitted mention of the Laelia from the Serra da Sincora.
		It was almost as if it had never been discovered.
