  • Prosthechea Green Hornet
    ORCHIDS WE SHOULD ALL GROW by Roy Kreugor PROSTHECHEA GREEN HORNET This particular little gem is a primary hybrid of two well known and loved “cockle shell” orchids, cochlea and lanceifolia. The family tree is a little more complicated with name changes in mid stream. First members of the Epidendrum family, this group was moved to the Encyclia heading when epis and encyclias were split. Later, the separate genus Prosthechea was created for the “cockle shell” type orchids. Today, there are about 100 species in this group, found mostly form Florida to Brazil. The plants are sympodial and mostly epiphytes. The distinction all carry is the shell shaped lip, often striped like a cockle shell, and always found at the top of the flower. Green Hornet is a primary hybrid (first generation cross of two species) of Psh cochlea X Psh lancefolia. It is an easy plant to grow in cultivation, easier than either parent. It takes its shape and size from cochlea, and its color, green form lancefolia. Plants can grow to 24” when mature with a typical size of 12-18”. Flowering season is spring to fall, although some will flower almost continuously. Flowers are borne on slender inflorescences up to 18”tall with 4-12 individual flowers opening almost simultaneously. Flowers are typically 3-4”long with narrow pedals and sepals and a shell shaped striped lip. The lip is a dark maroon on the outer side with a cream inner side striped with fine maroon markings. Pedals and sepals are a light green. Each bloom lasts from several weeks to a month.

  • Orchid of the Month for June, 2015 Oncidium Longipes by Bruce Adams
    Orchid of the Month for June, 2015 Oncidium Longipes by Bruce Adams Figure 1: Oncidium longipes When I first fell in love with orchids, about forty years ago, Oncidium was my favorite genus. I loved the intricate flowers on long sprays, often with a wonderful fragrance. At that time, I worked as a volunteer in the orchid house at Planting Fields Arboretum. After repotting plants, I had the opportunity to take home back bulbs, and received pieces of Oncidium sphacelatum, O. flexuosum, and others that I can no longer remember. Every year they had an orchid auction, and for the extravagant price of five dollars, I purchased a multi-lead plant of O. ornithorhyncum. I became familiar with many of the various species, and at the time was a bit of an Oncidium expert. Forty years later, I’ve forgotten much, and with the recent changes in nomenclature maybe I wasn’t ever really an Oncidium expert, but rather a Trichocentrum, Gomesa, and Tolumnia expert! What hasn’t changed is my fondness for this vast genus (or group of genera). Plants can get quite large, such as Oncidium sphacelatum, which can easily can fill a twelve-inch pot, sending out three foot spikes with hundreds of flowers. But there are also miniatures like Oncidium harrisonianum, which can be contained in a three or four inch pot and sports short sprays of pretty little yellow flowers with brown spots. In fact, most Oncidium flowers are a variation of yellow and brown, although Oncidium ornithorhyncum produces pretty purple pink flowers, while Oncidium phalaenopsis and its relatives have beautiful white to red flowers, often spotted with pink.

  • Encyclia Xcordistes Sauleda) from Colombia Is Described
    ISSN 2325-4785 New World Orchidaceae – Nomenclatural Notes Nomenclatural Note – Issue No. 60 November 24, 2019 A Second New Natural Hybrid of Encyclia Hook. (Encyclia xcordistes Sauleda) From Colombia is Described. Ruben P. Sauleda 6442 S. W. 107 Ct., Miami, Fl. 33173 ABSTRACT A second natural hybrid of Encyclia Hook. has been discovered in Colombia and is here described. The genus Encyclia Hook. is represented in Mexico by approximately 46 species, in Brazil by approximately 44 species (WCSP, 2018) and in Cuba at present 41 species are known, all with a high number of endemics. In Colombia only 14 species of Encyclia have been recognized and one cleistogamous variety (Encyclia chloroleuca variety yotocoensis Sauleda and J. C. Uribe). Natural hybrids are common in the Orchidaceae especially in the genus Encyclia (Sauleda and Adams, 1984; 1990; Sauleda, 2016). However, in Colombia hybrids are rare, only one natural hybrid, Encyclia xortizii Sauleda and a highly polymorphic species, Encyclia replicata (Lindl. & Paxt.) Schltr. (Sauleda, 2016a) which appears to be a result of introgression with Encyclia ceratistes (Lindl.) Schltr. (Sauleda, 2016a) have been reported. Considering the high biodiversity of Colombia this low number of Encyclia species is unusual. In Colombia other genera like Epidendrum L. (503 species), Stelis Sw. (406 species), Pleurothallis R. Br. (205 species), Maxillaria Ruiz & Pav. (268 species) have species numbers in the hundreds. One would wonder why Colombia has only 14 species of Encyclia. A second natural hybrid of Encyclia with E. ceratistes has been discovered and is here described. Encyclia xcordistes Sauleda, hyb. nov.

  • AOS Awards to Renanthera by Donna K. Burch Published in March 1999 Awards Quarterly Renanthera Is a Genus of Orchids with Branch
    AOS Awards to Renanthera By Donna K. Burch Published in March 1999 Awards Quarterly Renanthera is a genus of orchids with branched inflorescences that create a fiery display. They have been described as “the showiest of the monopodials” (Kennedy, 1979). Despite their attractiveness, only eight of the 15 to 17 species described as Renanthera have been recognized by the American Orchid Society, with a total of 21 awards. This represents a much smaller number of awards than could be expected, based on the natural beauty of these species and the number of AOS awards known to have been given to similarly stunning species. This paucity of awards is probably due to the faithful application by AOS judges of the criteria for vandaceous orchids as proposed in the Handbook on Judging and Exhibits, 10th Edition. “The general form of the flower is toward roundness, fullness and flatness. The sepals should be broad and rounded, and should be arranged in an equilateral triangle. The dorsal sepal should be as nearly equal to the lateral sepals as possible. The petals should be broad and rounded, as nearly equal to the dorsal sepal as possible, and should fill the gap between the sepals.” Obviously, the natural form of a Renanthera species – open flowers, more narrow than tall, dorsal sepal much smaller than the lateral sepals – does not conform to the above critera. Also, by emphasizing individual flowers, most point scales give little weight to the combined display of many colorful flowers on an inflorescence, which is the essence of Renenthera. Instead of the Vanda scale, Renanthera should be judged on the General Point scale, which allows 10 points for the consideration of the inflorescence.

  • Breeding System and Pollination by Mimicry of the Orchid Tolumnia Guibertiana in Western Cubapsbi 322 163..173
    Plant Species Biology (2011) 26, 163–173 doi: 10.1111/j.1442-1984.2011.00322.x Breeding system and pollination by mimicry of the orchid Tolumnia guibertiana in Western Cubapsbi_322 163..173 ÁNGEL VALE,* LUIS NAVARRO,* DANNY ROJAS* and JULIO C. ÁLVAREZ† *Department of Vegetal Biology, University of Vigo, Campus As Lagoas-Marcosende, Vigo, Spain and †Faculty of Biology, University of Havana, Vedado, Cuba Abstract The mimicry of malpighiaceous oil-flowers appears to be a recurrent pollination strategy among many orchids of the subtribe Oncidiinae. These two plant groups are mainly pollinated by oil-gathering bees, which also specialize in pollen collection by buzzing. In the present study, the floral ecology of the rewardless orchid Tolumnia guibertiana (Onci- diinae) was studied for the first time. The orchid was self-incompatible and completely dependent on oil-gathering female bees (Centris poecila) for fruit production. This bee species was also the pollinator of two other yellow-flowered plants in the area: the pollen and oil producing Stigmaphyllon diversifolium (Malpighiaceae) and the polliniferous and buzzing-pollinated Ouratea agrophylla (Ochnaceae). To evaluate whether this system is a case of mimetism, we observed pollinator visits to flowers of the three plant species and compared the floral morphometrics of these flowers. The behavior, preferences and move- ment patterns of Centris bees among these plants, as well as the morphological data, suggest that, as previously thought, flowers of T. guibertiana mimic the Malpighiaceae S. diversifolium. However, orchid pollination in one of the studied populations appears to depend also on the presence of O. agrophylla. Moreover, at the two studied populations, male and female pollination successes of T.

  • The Genus Encyclia (Hooker, Bot. Mag. 55: T. 2831 [1828]) Type: Encyclia Viridiflora [En-SEE-Clee-Ah Vi-Rid-I-FLOR-A]
    The Genus Encyclia (Hooker, Bot. Mag. 55: t. 2831 [1828]) Type: Encyclia viridiflora [en-SEE-clee-ah vi-rid-i-FLOR-a] There are 183 species and 16 natural hybrids (OrchidWiz [update Sep 2017]) that are mostly epiphytes that can be separated into two subgenera (not widely accepted but culturally convenient). Members of the subgenus Encyclia are principally found in seasonally dry forest at elevations from sea level to 1000 meters, while members of the subgenus Osmophytum are found in wet forest from sea level to 3,000 meters. Encyclias are distributed throughout the tropical Americas (including the West Indies, see distribution map below) with the center of distribution being in Mexico. These plants are highly variable, clump-forming, evergreen with the genus characterized by the presence of pseudobulbs; the apical inflorescence; the flowers not exceeding four centimeters in diameter; the lip free from the column for most of its length; the column without a foot; and the four hard pollinia attached to caudicles. The slender, often multibranched, numerous to few-flowered inflorescence, borne from the stem tip, has showy, wonderfully fragrant flowers found in a wide range of colors and shades of yellow, brown, green or rare pink. The flowers have similar sepals and petals. The widely varied, Encyclia viridiflora entire or trilobed lip encircles the stout or slender, footless column, but is never fully attached. These plants are best mounted on branches or tree fern plaques and generally do best in intermediate conditions. Encyclia is part of the Cattleya alliance and is often used in Cattleya alliance breeding.
