Of all the families of plants orchids are the largest. There are an estimated 750 to 1,000 genera and more than 25,000 species of orchids known today, with the number growing each year! The largest number of species is found in the Dendrobium (1,500 spp), Bulbophyllum (1,500 spp), and Pleurothalis (1,000 spp) genera. They are found on every continent in the world with the largest variety found in Asia. There are even species which use hot springs in Greenland to grow. Orchids can be epiphytic (growing high in the trees), terrestrial (growing in the ground), lithophytes (grow on rocks), and a few are saprophytic (living off decaying vegetation). The family is prized for its beautiful and diverse flowers. The only plant with an economic value to the common man is vanilla, which is a commonly enjoyed flavoring. The hybridizing of these flowers has become a major economic force worldwide for cut flowers and cultivation of plants by hobbyists.

  • Howeara Lava Burst
    suomenorkideayhdistys.fi http://www.suomenorkideayhdistys.fi/index.php?p=alias-26 Howeara Lava Burst ELOKUU 2007 © Teksti Oili Pentinsaari, kuva Tuula Hulkkonen Alkuperä Howeara-suku on kolmen luonnon orkideasuvun yhdistelmä: Rodriguezia x Oncidium x Leochilus. Floridalaisella Ruben Orchids -tarhalla risteytettiin v. 1970 Rodriguezia lanceolata ja Oncidium sarcodes, ja risteymälle annettiin nimeksi Rodricidium Primi. Kuusi vuotta myöhemmin Howen tarha risteytti Primin pienikokoisen Leochilus oncidioideksen kanssa. Suku sai nimekseen Howeara risteyttäjän mukaan, ja tämän keltakukkaisen kasvin lajikenimeksi tuli Mini-Primi. Howeara Lava Burst syntyi vasta v. 1993, kun havaijilainen Puananin tarha risteytti Mini-Primin uudelleen Rordriguezia lanceolatan kanssa. Risteymän kukista tuli upean lakanpunaisia. Tästä alkoi kasvin kaupallinen voittokulku: Howeara Lava Burst on yksi myydyimmistä risteymistä perhosorkidearisteymien jälkeen. Vanhemmista Rodriguezia lanceolata on pieni epifyytti, jonka kasvualueita ovat Trinidad, Panama ja Etelä-Amerikan pohjoisosat Brasiliaan asti. Se on kuuman ja lämpimän ilmanalan kasvi, joka viihtyy useimmiten guava-puiden valoisilla oksilla 650–1500 m:n korkeudella merenpinnasta. Se vaatii tasaisen kosteuden läpi vuoden ja voi kukkia minä vuodenaikana tahansa punertavin kukin vuosiverson valmistuttua. Oncidium sarcodes kasvaa Brasiliassa alueilla, joiden ilmasto vaihtelee kuumasta lämpimään. Lajin sanotaan viihtyvän parhaiten kaarnanpalalle istutettuna. Kukkii keväällä keltaisin, ruskeapilkkuisin kukin. Leochilus
