Phragmipedium lindenii is a species of orchid (family Orchidaceae) found from Venezuela to Ecuador. It is a lithophyte (rock dwelling plant). It is unique among orchids in being actinomorphic (radially symmetrical); the lip being indistinguishable from the other petals, and there being three stamens instead of the usual one or two stamens as in its nearest relative Phragmapedium wallisii which like all other orchids is zygomorphic (bilaterally symmetrical).
