  • The Genus Brassavola, (L.) R.Br
    The Genus Brassavola, (L.) R.Br. in W.T.Aiton, Hortus Kew. 5: 216 (1813) Type: Brassavola [B.] cucullata [bra-SAH-vo-la kyoo-kyoo-LAH-ta] There are 28 species (OrchidWiz [update Dec 2017]) that are epiphytes and sometimes lithophytes at elevations of from sea level to 3300 ft (1000 m) from Mexico, southern Caribbean islands to northern Argentina in moist or wet montane forests, mangroves, rocky crevices and cliff faces. They are most fragrant at night and many with a citrus smell. The genus is characterized by very small pencil-like pseudobulbs, often forming large clumps; a single, fleshy, apical, sub-terete leaf and the inflorescence produced form the apex of the pseudobulb. The inflorescence carries from a single to a few large flowers. The floral characteristics are elongate narrow similar sepals and petals, the base of the lip usually tightly rolled around at least a portion of the column which carries 12, sometimes eight unequal pollina with prominent opaque caudicles. The flowers usually occur, as a rule, in spring, summer and fall. The flowers are generally yellow to greenish white with a mostly white lip. It is not unusual for dark spots, usually purple, to be in the region where the sepals, petals, and lip join the stem (claw). This spotting is a dominant generic trait in Brassavola nodose. They are easily cultivated under intermediate conditions. Although this is a relatively small genus (28 species), the species show an unusually close relationship with one another in their floral patterns, coloration, and column structure making identification difficult, key to know where the plants were collected.

It is known only from montane rain forest in southern Bahia. Flower morphology, especially the fringed midlobe of the labellum, crested callus and teeth of the clinandrium, distinguish it from any other species of the genus. Key words: Epiphytes, flora of Bahia, Neotropics Resumo Uma nova espécie de orquídea do Brasil, Encyclia fimbriata, é descrita e ilustrada. Esta é somente conhecida de floresta montana do sul da Bahia. A morfologia da flor, especialmente o lobo medial do labelo fimbriado, o calo sinuoso e os dentes do clinândrio, a diferenciam de todas as demais espécies do gênero. Palavras-chave: Epífitas, flora da Bahia, Neotrópico Introduction Encyclia is the second largest genus in the Neotropical subtribe Laeliinae, being surpassed only by Epidendrum (Dressler 1993, Pridgeon et al. 2003, Chase et al. 2004). Many Encyclia species have ornamental value due to their large and showy flowers. There are about 120 species occuring from Florida, Mexico and West Indies to Brazil and northern Argentina (Withner 1998, 2000, van den Berg & Carnevali F.-C.

  • Orchids for Everyone Mar 2013 Cattleyas.Pdf
    Tuckers Orchid Nursery Presents… Orchids for Everyone Editor: Cathy Hine 1370 East Coast Road. Redvale, Auckland, NZ. Ph (09) 473 8629 Website: www.tuckersorchidnursery.co.nz Issue 26: March 2013 FROM ROSS THE BOSS Welcome back – This has been one of the hottest and driest summers I can remember for a few years. Your orchids will be smiling if you have been able to keep watering and feeding regularly. I was talking to a couple of commercial cymbidium growers, and they have noticed an increase in the number of flower spikes this year, because of last year’s poor light levels – too much cloud and raincover in summer, so they are predicting a tri-fecta pay out this year. Some are spiking from the bulbs that didn’t produce last summer. They have produced this year’s normal spiking, and an increase because of the high light levels and good temperatures – not too hot. If you don’t get a good flowering this year is not the weather conditions it’s your (the growers) fault. Not enough water and food. So get to it. It’s still not too late to produce spikes. Other genera have been similarly affected. Phalaenopsis have grown huge leaves because of the heat. Paphs have lots of new growths showing. Odontoglossums new larger bulbs and plenty of spikes showing, and cattleyas have lots of new growths and good flowering of the mature growths. I hope it continues along these lines throughout the year – and it truly will be a good Orchid Year. This month we feature Cattleyas as we have many new releases onto the web and lots of new cattleyas for the Orchid Club members.

  • Nomenclature
    NOMENCLATURE The written language of Horticulture The Written Language of Horticulture To write the names of orchids correctly we must understand the differences between species and hybrids, know the abbreviations for the various species and hybrids and follow a few simple rules The Written Language of Horticulture 1. A species orchid occurs naturally in nature. Plants of the same species sometime vary in shape and colour. These are called varieties and given a special varietal name. 2. A hybrid is a cross between species or hybrids or a species and a hybrid. (A Primary hybrid is a cross between two species.) (A Natural hybrid is a cross that occurs naturally in nature.) The Written Language of Horticulture As an example we will look at the cattleya family species abbreviation Brassavola B. Cattleya C. Laelia L. Sophronitis Soph. Broughtonia Bro. The Written Language of Horticulture When a Cattleya is crossed with a Brassavola it becomes a Brassocattleya, abbreviated Bc. When a Cattleya and Laelia are crossed it becomes a Laeliocattleya, abbreviated Lc. When a Brassocattleya is crossed with a Laelia it becomes a Brassolaeliocattleya, abbreviated Blc. When a Brassolaeliocattleya is crossed with a Sophronitis it becomes a Potinara, abbreviated Pot. When a Broughtonia is crossed with a Cattleya it becomes a Cattletonia, abbreviated Ctna. The Written Language of Horticulture Why make these crosses 1. The Brassavola imparts large frilly labellums to the cross. 2. The Sophronitis imparts yellow, red, orange to the flowers. 3. The Broughtonia imparts dwarf structure, miniature clusters, good shape and flowers several times per year LET US NOW LOOK AT HOW TO WRITE THE NAMES OF ORCHIDS The following are a few rules that will assist in writing orchid names.

    LANKESTERIANA 6(3):83-89. 2006. COMPARISON OF FLORAL FRAGRANCE COMPONENTS OF SPECIES OF ENCYCLIA AND PROSTHECHEA (ORCHIDACEAE) FROM SOCONUSCO, SOUTHEAST MEXICO ALEJANDRO DEL MAZO CANCINO & *ANNE DAMON *El Colegio de la Frontera Sur (ECOSUR), apdo. postal 36, Carretera Aeropuerto Antiguo, Tapachula, Chiapas, México. [email protected] ABSTRACT. We analyzed the volatile fragrance components of fl owers of four species of Prosthechea and three species of Encyclia, from the lower and middle altitudes of Soconusco region in the southeast of Mexico. The fl owers of P. cochleata, reported to be an autogamic species, produced no volatiles. P. baculus, P. chacaoensis and P. radiata, all of which have highly fragrant fl owers, shared various volatile components, most notably, p-methyl anisole, e-ocimene, oxophorone, α-farnesene and benzyl benzoate. E. adenocarpa has lightly fragrant fl owers, with hexadecene and e-nerolidol the major components, whereas the physically similar E. parvifl ora produced mainly 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoic acid, methyl ester and only one other compound. E. cordigera is a highly fragrant species and produced relatively large amounts of cis-geraniol. Various volatile fragrance components were shared by these two, recently separated genera, especially benzaldehyde, cis-ocimene and e-ocimene. Similarities were greater between the Prosthecheas (excluding P. cochleata) than the Encyclias. RESUMEN. Se analizaron los compuestos volátiles de fl ores de cuatro especies de Prosthechea y tres especies de Encyclia, de altitudes bajas y medianas de la región del Soconusco en el sureste de México. Las fl ores de Prosthechea cochleata, una especie considerada autogámica, no produjeron ningún compuesto volátil.
