  • 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.

  • New Cattleya Orchid Hybrid(1)
    GUILHERME AUGUSTO CITO ALVES CORREIO et. al 145 CULTIVAR DESCRIPTION New Cattleya orchid hybrid(1) GUILHERME AUGUSTO CITO ALVES(2), RODRIGO THIBES HOSHINO(2), DOUGLAS JUNIOR BERTONCELLI(2), RONAN CARLOS COLOMBO(2), VANESSA STEGANI(3), RICARDO TADEU DE FARIA(2) ABSTRACT The hybrid, obtained by back crossing between (Cattleya labiata x Cattleya forbesii) x Cattleya labiata is a vigorous plant, bi- or unifoliate, features slender and cylindrical pseudobulbs and leathery dark-greenish leaves, with oblanceolate shape format of blunt tips with the first flowering four years after sowing. In Londrina, flowering occurred twice a year, between the months of April and May and October and November with 2-4 flowers per pseudobulb and durability ranging from 15 to 20 days. The flowers of the new hybrid were purple with a labellum with a yellow center and purple stripes. Keywords: breeding, floriculture, Orchidaceae, selection. RESUMO Novo híbrido de orquídea Cattleya O híbrido, obtido do retrocruzamento entre (Cattleya labiata x Cattleya forbesii) x Cattleya labiata é uma planta vigorosa, bi ou unifoliada, apresenta pseudobulbos delgados e cilíndricos e folhas coriáceas com tonalidade verde escuro, com formato oblanceolado, de pontas obtusas, apresentando o primeiro florescimento após quatros anos da semeadura. O florescimento em Londrina ocorreu duas vezes no ano, entre os meses de abril e maio e outubro e novembro com 2-4 flores por pseudobulbo e durabilidade entre 15 a 20 dias. As flores do novo híbrido possuem coloração lilás e labelo com um centro amarelo e listras roxas. Palavras-chave: floricultura, melhoramento, Orchidaceae, seleção. 1. INTRODUCTION allows the introduction of relevant genes such as shape, durability, color, and others into hybrids of orchids The Orchidaceae family has about 26,500 species, (WITHNER, 1988) distributed across all continents (KEW, 2011).

  • Do Orchids Grow in Hawaii? and How!
    Do Orchids Grow in Hawaii? And How! SYNOPSIS This is an historical sketch of the Saga of Orchids in Hawaii. The sequence of events from the incidental introduction of species by the Agriculturists for the Sugar Industry; to their efforts in propagation and culture, hybridizing and germination; to the development of personal nurseries to commercial ranges; and ultimately to the creation of a viable orchid industry, re­ cognized world wide; to the natural formation of orchid societies staging of orchid shows; and finally to the introduction of a system of orchid judging , should bring interesting reading to orchidists, amateur and professional alike. In fact, this could serve as a reference syllabus to keep. DO ORCHIDS GROW IM HAWAII? AMD HOW i Compiled and Edited by Dr. T. David Woo and Wallace K.

  • Species Data Sheet Cattleya Milleri (Blumensch
    Species Data Sheet Cattleya milleri (Blumensch. ex Pabst) Van den Berg, Neodiversity 3: 9 (2008) [KAT-lee-a mil-LAR-ee] Recently ‘found’, 1960, in Brazil as a miniature sized, warm to cool growing "rupicolous" lithophyte on iron ore outcroppings in Minas Gerais or on the base of Vellozia shrubs at elevations of 2500 to 4300 feet (800 to 1300 m). The clusterd red pseudobulbs are up to 2.5” (6 cm) high, widest at the base, and bear a stiff, somewhat narrow 4.0” (10 cm) ovate-oblong, keeled, rigid leaf with a sharp tip. The leaf is borne at an angle to the pseudobulb, not in line with it, and the foliage of most plants has a deep maroon flush, particularly on the backs of the leaves. The blood- or range-red starry flowers approach 2.0” (5.0 cm) in diameter, blooming in late spring and early summer (May through July) on a erect, 12 to 18" [30 to 50 cm] long, several to many flowered (approximately 6 to 12 flowers at the same time), Cattleya milleri racemose inflorescence with successive opening flowers, held well ‘Phyllis’ AM/AOS above the leaves. The lip is usually yellow with cinnabar-colored May 2010, NS 5.0 x 5.0 cm veining and varying width picotee. There are two color types, one group has narrower sepals and petals, slightly larger flowers and an orange-red color. The other group has slightly smaller flowers with wider sepals and petals and their color is a more blood-red. Synonyms: Laelia milleri Varieties / forms: None.

Most orchids that are hummingbird- pollinated are from high- elevation ecosystems in the tropical New World where insects are rare or unable to operate because of the cold. They are particularly common in the Andean regions where hummingbirds reach their greatest diversity. Hummingbirds are found only in the Americas with at least 330 species from Alaska to the tip of South America. The greatest numbers are found in the tropics with fewer than 20 species normally found in the United States and Canada. Hummingbirds seem particularly attracted to many species of the genera Elleanthus, Cochlioda, and Comparettia. Some species of Masdevallia, Epidendrum, Encyclia, Cattleya, Sobralia, and Laelia have also adapted to hummingbirds.

The white to pale green fl owers are usually about 3½ inches in diameter (but some may be up to 6 inches), and wonderfully fragrant in the evening. Each fl ower has long, slender sepals and petals, and a large, heart-shaped lip on the tubular lower petal. The lip may have purple or dark red spotting inside the tube. B. nodosa is a very easy orchid to grow, adapting to a wide range of conditions in cultivation.

It likes the same conditions cattleya and produce a lovely fragrance in the evening. laelia orchids do, so if you can grow them successfully, this is a species to consider growing. Provide the plant with good light and intermediate temperatures (65º to 80ºF during the day with a 10ºF drop at night) for best fl owering. It may not fl ower, however, if kept at temperatures below about 55ºF.
