Aerides Lawrenceae by Martin Motes Fragrant Long-Lasting Flowers for Autumn COLLECTor’s item Aerides lawrenceae By Martin Motes Fragrant Long-Lasting Flowers for Autumn FEW ORCHIDS ARE AS ELEGANTLY beautiful as a well-flowered specimen of Aerides lawrenceae. Cascades of rose- tipped white flowers delight the eye from a distance. Closer inspection reveals pearly white, waxy sepals and petals tipped with deep rose and a deep rose-colored lip, pro- viding a perfectly inflected contrast to the predominantly white flower. Well-grown plants can produce six 24-inch- (60-cm-) long spikes of these delightful, full-formed flowers. Close inspection also envelops the observer in the delicious fragrance that almost surpasses its aptly named relative Aerides odorata. In the best forms the flow- ers are up to 1⅞ inches (4.5 cm), rivaling Aerides crispa as the largest in the genus. Like the perfect diva, she also times her arrival on the stage perfectly: Aer. lawren- ceae appears in the autumn when few other Aeridinae species are in bloom. One of a group of Aerides species from the Southern Hemisphere with similar plant habits, inflorescences and flowering times, Aer. lawrenceae is most closely re- Martin Motes lated to Aerides quinquevulnera and somewhat more distantly to Aerides leeana. Aerides lawrenceae is the southernmost of these, coming from Mindanao, Philippines. James Veitch (1887–1894) states “It is often associated with Vanda Sanderiana (sic) and Phalaenopsis Sanderiana (sic) and these three noble orchids have even been observed growing on the same tree.” Gustav Reichenbach described Aer. lawrenceae (1833), naming it in honor of Lady Lawrence, the wife of the then-president of the Royal Horticul- tural Society. Carl Roebelin discovered Aer. lawrenceae while in pursuit of the “red” Phalaenopsis sanderiana. His first N glimpse of both is dramatically described O by Fredrick Boyle: HNS “As they neared the surf, the whole JO body of islanders rushed toward them … 1 RRY LA dived beneath the wave, and came up at the vessel’s side. … But the first yellow cies known. … Another shot up; another.

(Phalaenopsis Joane Kileup June, Phalaenopsis Pinlong Cinderella, and (Phal. Fortune Buddha x Phal.

The crossing of Phalaenopsis sp. and Vanda tricolor was compatible, and the use of Phalaenopsis sp. as male parent had better probability in producing fruits rather than the opposite. The crossing which was done at the first and the second weeks after blooming produced more fruit than the crossing at the third week after blooming, even though it did not affect the success of crossing, time of fruit formation, and duration of fruit hanging.

  • Traditional Therapeutic Uses of Some Indigenous Orchids of Bangladesh
    ® Medicinal and Aromatic Plant Science and Biotechnology ©2009 Global Science Books Traditional Therapeutic Uses of Some Indigenous Orchids of Bangladesh Mohammad Musharof Hossain* Department of Botany, University of Chittagong, Chittagong-4331, Bangladesh Correspondence : * [email protected] ABSTRACT The traditional therapeutic uses of some indigenous orchids of Bangladesh are described in this paper. Terrestrial (11) and epiphytic (18) orchids, 29 in total, are used by Bangladeshi rural and tribal people for the treatment of nearly 45 different diseases and ailments. Roots, tubers, pseudobulbs, stems, leaves and even whole plants are used. Some herbal preparations have miraculous curative properties. Unfortunately, these preparations have not typically been subjected to the precise scientific clarification and standardization which are consequently required for clinical implementations. Some of the orchids are endangered due to over-exploitation and habitat destruction. Conservation strategies for orchids and further pharmacological studies on traditional medicines are suggested. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Keywords: astavarga, conservation, ethnomedicine, herbal remedies, rasna INTRODUCTION the underground tuber of Orchis latifolia is used in the drug ‘munjatak’ pacifying cough (Khasim and Rao 1999).

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.

    Do Orchids Grow in Hawaii? And How! SYNOPSIS This is an historical sketch of the Saga of Orchids in Hawaii. The sequence of events from the incidental introduction of species by the Agriculturists for the Sugar Industry; to their efforts in propagation and culture, hybridizing and germination; to the development of personal nurseries to commercial ranges; and ultimately to the creation of a viable orchid industry, re­ cognized world wide; to the natural formation of orchid societies staging of orchid shows; and finally to the introduction of a system of orchid judging , should bring interesting reading to orchidists, amateur and professional alike.
