Cyclopogon Ellipticus
Elliptic cyclopogon, scientifically known as Cyclopogon ellipticus, is a rare and striking member of the orchid family found primarily in the cloud forests of Central and South America. With its unique elliptical leaves and delicate, fragrant flowers, this plant stands out among its relatives for its distinct appearance and ecological significance. Despite its beauty, it remains a little-known species, often overlooked in favor of more widely recognized orchids.
