Coelogyne nitida is an important member of the genus Coelogyne, distributed throughout Himalayan region and SouthEast Asia. In this study, a total of 17 C. nitida germplasm collections were characterized for various morphological and floral characters during the flowering season of 2020 at ICAR-NRC for Orchids, Pakyong. Amongst the various characters studied, it was observed that the number of flowers per inflorescence was recorded upto 9-12 which is higher than the previously reported number (4-8 flowers per raceme). This character needs to be studied to a greater extent to confirm the expression for further usage.
