Spathiphyllum 'Alana' is a compact hybrid characterised by its evergreen,erect, lance-shaped, glossy dark green leaves, and ovate white flowering spathes to 15 cm in length, each with a slender cream spadix within.
The name of the genus Spathiphyllum is the highly vivid Neo-Latinversion of two words of Ancient Greeklanguage, ‘σπάθη’(Indo-European root sph₂-dʰ-), means sword and ‘φύλλον’, means leave - aptly describing the special shape of the flowers.
he name of the species wallisii was given in honor of the German plant collector Gustav Wallis(1830-1878), who has introduced more than 1000 species of plants in Europe, including many orchids.
