We need the practice. 3 Laelias of Mexico by James Rose, transcribed by Inge Poot The genus Laelia has been chopped down severely by the DNA taxonomists, since they found that most of the species in this formerly large genus are not closely related to the type species Laelia speciosa and had to therefore be removed from this genus. All that remained were eleven species. All 11 species occur in Mexico, even though one species is also found in several other countries. Since the temperatures in the areas in which they are found are rarely higher than 100F or lower than 25F they can be grown out of doors in Santa Barbara, California, the home town of our speaker. However, the Mexicans treasure their native orchids and as a result so does their government and they are now very hard to get out of Mexico. As a result Laelia anceps is the only laelia readily available in the trade at present. Laelia speciosa (Photo: OW 10.0, Library) The type species of the genus Laelia speciosa was first described as Bletia speciosa in 1825, then in 1831 Lindley changed the name to Laelia majalis, but since he did not follow the rule of using the first published specific epiphet, this name was changed to the present day name of Laelia speciosa in 1914 by Schlechter. Distribution: Southern part of Sierra Occidental of the Central Mexican Plateau. Elevation: 1900 to 2500 meters withstanding temperatures down to 0 degrees Fahrenheit. Habitat: Growing almost always on oaks and withstands very dramatic periods of drought. November and December keep cool and dry. If you water them at all during that time there will be no flowers, even if the new growth emerges at that time. Conservation: Under special protection. Heavily collected in some areas. Flowering time: April to May. This coincides with a religious holiday and the flowers are picked with the two front bulbs as substitute aqua-picks, to be used in decorations of homes and churches. Laelia autumnalis Photo: W. Bussey OW 10.0 First described as Bletilla autumnalis in 1825 from plants collected near Morelia and moved to Laelia autumnalis in 1831 by Lindley. The plants have one meter (3-foot) sprays with up to 12 terminally bunched flowers. Reichenbach’s picture represented artistic license by shortening the flower stem! Many colour variants have been found such as albas and the deep red-magenta variety atrorubens Distribution: Central mountains of Mexico in the states of Nayarit, Jalisco, Mexico, Morelos. Pueblo and Guerrero. Elevation: 1400 to 2700 meters Habitat: Grows in mixed pine and evergreen oak forest under dry to humid condition. Conservation: Large populations found throughout range. Flowering time: September to December. They grow in almost full sun. The seedpod goes through the dry season intact and splits at the beginning of the rainy season. Plants growing on steep cliffs are only ones safe from depredations from subsistence farming.

The time just seemed to fly past this year. Well, by now, everyone will have the last of their orchids inside, except for the few who manage to flower cymbidiums. Be careful folks, I have killed my fair share by leaving them out just that one or two nights too long. And everyone needs to keep an eye on those who enjoyed the summer outside to make sure there were no hitch hikers. On a more serious note, your Executive has taken the steps required to register with the Provincial Government for the purpose of the PST.

Société Française d’Orchidophilie 17 Quai de la Seine, 75019 Paris Foreword The first European Orchid Council Conference and Exposition (EOCCE) was organized in 1967 in Vienna. The second conference followed 2 years later in 1969, together with the Floralies in Vincennes, Paris. 19 years later, in 1988 the EOCCE was again in Paris, the conference program was in a building at the Trocadero, the orchid exhibition was in a tent on the Champs de Mars, both localities with the perfect view to the most famous landmark of Paris, the Eiffel-tower. I still remember the storm during one afternoon, strong enough to force the responsible of the organization committee to shut down the exhibition for some hours. And now in 2018 we saw the 3rd EOCCE again in Paris, not in the heart of the town, but not too far away.
