The Eric Young Orchid Foundation by Chris Plant of the Month Purver, curator (transcribed by Inge Poot and kindly and carefully corrected by Chris Purver. Thanks a million, Chris!) Chris Purver has been interested in horticulture since a young age and was happy to be employed by the Eric Young Orchid Foundation in 1998. Alan Moon was curator at that time, but retired 2002. Chris Purver was appointed curator thereafter and currently serves as a judge of the RHS Orchid Committee. The Foundation is located on the Isle of Jersey which is tucked away in the Bay of St Malo off the coast of France. It is located quite a bit south of England. As a result French is often spoken there and perhaps the French elan has rubbed off on the design of the interior plant-landscape! Two years after Chris joined the Foundation the wooden greenhouses were rebuilt and modernised with aluminum frame greenhouses, while trying to disturb the interior as little as possible. When Peter and I visited the then wood-frame greenhouses just before they were rebuilt we already were most The fiery flowers of Phragmipedium Fox Valley Fireball impressed with the imaginative display of the well-grown ‘Dragon’s Den’ AM, CCM-AOS were awarded the day plant material.

  • Lycaste Lye-KASS-Tee
    Lycaste lye-KASS-tee Lycastes are deciduous in various degrees, from the strongly deciduous, yellow-flowered species like Lycaste aromatica that flowers from leafless pseudobulbs to the evergreen types like Lycaste skinneri with pseudobulbs that retain their leaves at flowering. This genus produces large, long-lasting, showy, triangular flowers that are waxy. The plants are distinctive for their roundish pseudobulbs and broad, plicate (pleated) leaves. Culture for the hybrid genus Angulocaste (Lycaste ϫ Anguloa) follows the culture for the Lycaste parent. LIGHT requirements vary. Deciduous recommended during active growth species require light conditions as for cat- (usually summer); some growers spread tleyas — 2,000 to 4,000 foot-candles or 50 blood meal on the top of the potting medi- to 70 percent shade.
