Cymbidium
The genus Cymbidium was first formally described in 1799 by Olof Swartz. The genus name Cymbidium is derived from the Latin word cymba meaning "cup", "bowl" or "boat" with the diminutive suffix -idium, hence "little boat", apparently in reference to the shape of the labellum in some species.
