Orchids: The beautiful, the unique, and the weird

This is the perfect talk for anyone just entering the orchid world or wanting to explore new, neat genera of orchids. It covers over 30 different genera, including common ones like Phalaenopsis and Cattleya to the lesser-known like Porpax and Coryanthes. It also includes a short section defining “what is an orchid” which briefly explains how the vast and bizarre variation of flowers could all possibly be orchids. Lastly, there is loads of cultural information and some “tips and tricks” to becoming an award-winning orchid grower.
