  • The Genus Brassavola, (L.) R.Br
    The Genus Brassavola, (L.) R.Br. in W.T.Aiton, Hortus Kew. 5: 216 (1813) Type: Brassavola [B.] cucullata [bra-SAH-vo-la kyoo-kyoo-LAH-ta] There are 28 species (OrchidWiz [update Dec 2017]) that are epiphytes and sometimes lithophytes at elevations of from sea level to 3300 ft (1000 m) from Mexico, southern Caribbean islands to northern Argentina in moist or wet montane forests, mangroves, rocky crevices and cliff faces. They are most fragrant at night and many with a citrus smell. The genus is characterized by very small pencil-like pseudobulbs, often forming large clumps; a single, fleshy, apical, sub-terete leaf and the inflorescence produced form the apex of the pseudobulb. The inflorescence carries from a single to a few large flowers. The floral characteristics are elongate narrow similar sepals and petals, the base of the lip usually tightly rolled around at least a portion of the column which carries 12, sometimes eight unequal pollina with prominent opaque caudicles. The flowers usually occur, as a rule, in spring, summer and fall. The flowers are generally yellow to greenish white with a mostly white lip. It is not unusual for dark spots, usually purple, to be in the region where the sepals, petals, and lip join the stem (claw). This spotting is a dominant generic trait in Brassavola nodose. They are easily cultivated under intermediate conditions. Although this is a relatively small genus (28 species), the species show an unusually close relationship with one another in their floral patterns, coloration, and column structure making identification difficult, key to know where the plants were collected.

  • Orchids for Everyone Mar 2013 Cattleyas.Pdf
    Tuckers Orchid Nursery Presents… Orchids for Everyone Editor: Cathy Hine 1370 East Coast Road. Redvale, Auckland, NZ. Ph (09) 473 8629 Website: www.tuckersorchidnursery.co.nz Issue 26: March 2013 FROM ROSS THE BOSS Welcome back – This has been one of the hottest and driest summers I can remember for a few years. Your orchids will be smiling if you have been able to keep watering and feeding regularly. I was talking to a couple of commercial cymbidium growers, and they have noticed an increase in the number of flower spikes this year, because of last year’s poor light levels – too much cloud and raincover in summer, so they are predicting a tri-fecta pay out this year. Some are spiking from the bulbs that didn’t produce last summer. They have produced this year’s normal spiking, and an increase because of the high light levels and good temperatures – not too hot. If you don’t get a good flowering this year is not the weather conditions it’s your (the growers) fault. Not enough water and food. So get to it. It’s still not too late to produce spikes. Other genera have been similarly affected. Phalaenopsis have grown huge leaves because of the heat. Paphs have lots of new growths showing. Odontoglossums new larger bulbs and plenty of spikes showing, and cattleyas have lots of new growths and good flowering of the mature growths. I hope it continues along these lines throughout the year – and it truly will be a good Orchid Year. This month we feature Cattleyas as we have many new releases onto the web and lots of new cattleyas for the Orchid Club members.

La familia Orchidaceae es uno de los grupos de Magnoliophyta de mayor distribución a nivel mundial, ocupan una amplia gama de nichos, desde el medio terrestre hasta las copas de los árboles (epífitas). Históricamente esta familia ha recibido mucha atención dada la belleza de las flores de algunos de sus miembros, lo que ha llevado con el tiempo a buscar el conocimiento, entre otras cosas, sobre su distribución; por lo que han aparecido listas de especies para varios lugares de América y el mundo. En Venezuela, exceptuando los tratamientos que a nivel general se ha dado a la familia, son escasos los estudios a nivel local y en particular en la cordillera de la costa; razón por la que en este trabajo se presenta una lista actualizada de las especies de Orchidaceae conocidas hasta el presente en la flora del estado Sucre.

  • Gulf Coast Orchid Society Newsletter
    Gulf Coast Orchid Society Newsletter June 9, 2013 Our June meeting will be held Sunday, June 9, at 2:00 at the Jeff Davis Community College located at the corner of Runnymeade Rd and Debuys; just north of Pass Rd. We will meet in the main cafeteria and then move to the smaller meeting room for the program. The room that we normally use will be closed due to another meeting. PLEASE DO NOT GO INTO THE REGULAR MEETING ROOM. The Orchid’s 101 meeting led by Glen Ladnier will precede the meeting at 1:30 in the smaller meeting room. This month’s topic will be “It’s all in the roots!” PROGRAM: Glen will also do our main program on Native Orchids of South Mississippi. This will be part power point presentation and part live orchids that Glen will bring in. Glen has been working with native orchids for several years. He is currently working with Crosby Arboretum in their efforts to create a native orchid garden. We will also have several plants to sell at the meeting; some of the great plants Walter Taylor donated for the May auction, some plants donated by Jo Ann Vaz and many blooming Phals and Dendrobium purchased earlier in the year. All plants will be prepriced; you can purchase these plants from the time they get to the meeting (around 1:00 PM) until 1:20 and during the break of the regular meeting. Sales will stop just before the Orchids 101 class starts. They will be covered so no shopping or setting plants aside.
