Aerides crispa Lindl.
The name "children of the air" for Aerides crispa comes from the Greek words aer (air) and eides (resembling), which reflects its epiphytic nature and how these orchids are cultivated. A. crispa is a large, tough, and robust epiphyte with young leaves adorned with purple spots. Its inflorescence can reach up to 35 cm in length, drooping, branching, and loosely bearing many flowers. In the Western Ghats, ear-drops made by boiling the pulverized A. crispa plant in neem oil are used to treat earaches. These ear-drops are instilled into the ear, typically 2-3 drops per night. A. crispa contains aeridin, a bactericidal phenanthropyran compound. Although the exact contribution of aeridin to the management of earaches is uncertain, it exhibits bactericidal properties. |
