Description originale : ​Of the Cyrtopodiums , the ornaments of our native natural savannahs, the loveliest by far is C. Grisebachii, Rolfe (C. cristatum Griseb. [Fl. Brit. W. I., (6-7): 630. 10/1864, fide TL-2, 2181]), which the Kew authorities have lately identified for me. It much resembles a grass when out of bloom, and the lovely white blossoms with one lemon-yellow stain on the lip are like small flowers of Diacrium bicornutum. The flowers last a long time in beauty, and the plant is only to be found in one part of Trinidad, and there it is fast disappearing owing to the advancing tide of cultivation.​
