Ron will be talking to us on Orchid Pests and Diseases, a subject we can all relate to and one that Ron is sure to give a new twist. This newsletter is two weeks early for a reason. Our June speaker, Jason Fischer of Orchids Limited will be attending the Fraser Valley Orchid Society Show in British Columbia on October 19th to 21st. He has offered to accept orders from here in Ontario that he will then ship from B.C. to the Kennedys here. The rules and conditions for this opportunity are set out in the President’s message. Also Sam Tsui from Orchid Inn will be visiting Toronto September 1 and the Montreal Show October 13-14. He too is willing to bring plant orders for us. Orders must be to him by August 19th. Please respect the deadlines. You must arrange to pick up the orders. 1 President’s Remarks Fellow orchid aficionados: For those of you who like the heat, Talk to me at a meeting; e-mail me at this has certainly been a spectacular summer. [email protected], or phone me at The only thing that has been missing for “we 905-473-3405. gardeners” (and for all the farmers) has been rain. Yvonne Schreiber Orchidfest took place on August 5th.

MJC judging, JBMtl. 10 am everyone who brought a dish to share and to September those who helped to organize the feast. 1, Toronto Centre judging 1 pm at the The Social Break will resume at the September Toronto Botanical Garden 2nd meeting. The letters of the month for September will be last names that start with the 2, SOOS meeting Toronto Botanical Garden, letters N – R. We are asking anyone whose last sales 12 noon, program 1 pm name starts with this letter to bring in a treat to 15. MJC judging, JBMtl. 10 am share. These treats should be finger foods only 29-30 Central Ontario Orchid Society Show i.e. something that can be picked up with your fingers and does not require a plate or fork. On the topic of comments presented at the Town Hall Forum, a request was made for a wider variety of plants for sale. Jason Fischer from Orchids Limited was our guest speaker at the June meeting. You had the opportunity to pre-order plants and Jason also brought plants to sell at the meeting. Jason grows a wide range of genera. Now that you have had a taste of what he grows, perhaps you are interested in acquiring more. Jason will be attending the Fraser Valley Orchid Society Show in British Columbia on October 19th to 21st. I am sure that the folks there would like to see you, but if travelling to B.C. is not in your plans, there is another option. Jason is willing to bring pre- ordered plants to the show and ship them to us in Ontario. There would be a 15% handling fee in addition to the prices on Jason’s website. The plants would all be shipped to the Kennedys for pick up and distribution. The deadline to order plants on Appendix I (Paphiopedilums and Phragmipediums) is August 20th. The deadline for plants on Appendix II (all other plants) is September 24th. October Each individual places their own order and 6, Toronto Centre judging 1 pm at the makes their payment directly to Jason. To alert Toronto Botanical Garden Jason that your order is part of the pre-order for SOOS, in the “Special Instructions Field” 7, SOOS meeting Toronto Botanical Garden, indicate “SOOS Pre-order”. Jason’s website is sales 12 noon, program 1 pm www.orchidweb.com. Happy shopping. 13, Ecos Show Montreal, MJC judging 2 Hybridizing for white Phragmipediums: Crossing the tiny round white with a pink lip Phrag schlimii with Phrag longifolium, a species with long twisted petals, gives the famous Phrag Sedenii. (A lot of mix-up has occurred because a plant labelled Phrag sedenii was probably a Phrag. Sedenii crossed back onto Phrag. schlimii, in other words a Phrag Cardinale. However I suppose such a result could have been obtained by sibbing a Phrag Sedenii, since the progeny of such a cross could have almost any characteristic of either of the two species in its make-up yet would still be a Phrag Sedenii.) The typical Phrag Sedenii is white with a rose- pink lip. The petals are twisted and in good clones quite wide. Phrag schlimii breeding is one avenue to white Phrags. Phrag Hanne Popow flavum a cross of besseae flavum X schlimii produces almost white flowers with just a few pink flushes. Sibbing two of the whitest clones will get some white progeny. Phrag St Ouen flavum (Hanne Popow flavum – 27, RBG Show and COC meeting white with palest pink X besseae flavum - yellow)is not only a route to some white Phrags, but their 3N cross produced a veritable rainbow of colours in lovely pastels.

  • Cytotaxonomy of the Monopodial Orchids of the African and Malagasy Regions
    Cytotaxonomy of the monopodial orchids of the African and Malagasy regions J. C. Arends & F. M. Van der Laan Department of Plant Taxonomy and Plant Geography, Agricultural University, Gen. Foulkesweg 37, 6700 ED Wageningen, The Netherlands Abstract The three subtribes which are recognized within the tribe Vandeae are represented in the tropical African and Malagasy regions. All taxa of the Vandeae have a monopodial growth habit. The first subtribe, Sarcanthinae, is mainly Asian-Australasian, but a few of its species occur in Madagascar and in Africa. The other two subtribes, Angraecinae and Aerangidinae, are both represented in the latter two regions. The Angraecinae ischaracterize d by the presence of a short rostellum, but this iselongate d in the Aerangidinae. According to earlier authors there is a correlation between presence of the short rostellum and a basic chromosome number of x= 19i nth e Angraecinae, and between the presence of an elongated rostellum and a basic number of x = 25 in the Aerangidinae. The results presented in this paper are placed in perspective with the chromosome numbers recorded by other authors. From the resulting chromosome number survey it appears that only part of the Angraecinae (Aeranthes, several species of Angraecum. Cryptopus and Jumellea) have a basic number of x = 19; some members of the Angraecinae (other species of Angraecum) were found to have a basic number of x = 21,24 and 25. The Aerangidinae is not characterized by a single basic number of x= 25 but by aserie s ranging from x = 23t o x= 27,o f which x= 23,24 and 25ar e the most frequent.

  • Appendix: Orchid Potting Mixtures - an Abridged Historical Review 1
    Appendix: Orchid potting mixtures - An abridged historical review 1 T. J. SHEEHAN Introduction There is little doubt that potting media development over time has been the salvation of orchid growers (Bomba, 1975). When epiphytic orchids were first introduced into England and other European countries in the 18th century growers could not envision plants growing in anything but soil. '"Peat and loam' were good for everything and frequently became the mass murderers of the first generation of epiphytic orchids," Hooker is believed to have said around the end of the 19th century; England had become the graveyard of tropical orchids. Undoubtedly this was in reference to the concern individuals were having over the potting media problems. This problem also drew the attention of such noted individuals as John Lindley and Sir Joseph Paxton, as well as the Gardener's Chronicle, who noted that "The Rule of Thumb" had nothing to say about orchid growing; it was only effective in orchid killing (Bomba 1975). Fortunately, the ingenuity of growers solved the problem as innovative potting mixes evolved over the years. After visiting a number of orchid growing establishments it immediately becomes obvious to any orchid grower, professional or hobbyist, that orchids, both epiphytic and terrestrial, will grow in a wide variety of media. It has often been stated that epiphytic orchids can be grown in any medium except soil as long as watering and fertilization are adjusted to fit the mix being used. Ter­ restrial orchids seem to thrive in any medium that contains 40% or more organic matter. Reading cultural recommendations from the early days of orchid growing is most interesting and highly recommended.
