Stanhopea maduroi Laelia but ensure adequate brightness forA fragrant epiphyte from the cloud forests of Central America, producing large pendulous flowers with broad, unspotted sepals, a contrasting dark dorsal sepal with purple striations, a prominent globose hypochile, and a sculptural mesochile with two symmetrically outward curving lobes flanking a sharply pointed epichile.
