THE HISTORY OF CYMBIDIUM

The derivation of the name 'cymbidium' is unclear. The Swedish botanist Olaf Swartz created the name in 1800, which literally translated means 'boat like' because a "cymba" is a slender rowboat. Unfortunately this name is not descriptive of the shape of a cymbidium flower, and it has been suggested that Swartz may have had 'cymbium' in mind instead of 'cymba'. A 'cymbium' is a small slender shallow drinking vessel with a handle, a form which can be related to the shape of the lip of the species originally used to describe the genus, Cymbidium aloifolium. This bears a lip which is recurved or bent backwards into a handle, with the erect side lobes indicating a bowl, as can be seen in the following illustration.
Cymbidiums have the longest recorded history of any orchid, the earliest records coming from the Orient (China and Japan). Cymbidiums have become idealised in Chinese philosophy to be recognised as a symbol for superior med and elegant women, the term being used for both of these and orchids is LAN.
