labellum

Lower petal of an orchid flower; it is a different shape from the two lateral petals and gives the orchid its characteristic appearance. The labellum is more elaborate and usually larger than the other petals. It often has distinctive patterning to encourage pollination by insects; sometimes it is extended backwards to form a hollow spur containing nectar.
