Orchid Lessons by Naresh Swami – Distichous flower arrangement.

When flowers arise in two opposite vertical rows on either side of the axil, the arrangement is termed distichous flower arrangement. The arrangement can be alternate or opposite. 

This type of arrangement is not confined to flowers, many orchid species produce distichous leaves also.
