Genus Dendrobium: A Family Portrait of Dendrobium Species
A fast paced PowerPoint presentation on this fascinating genus of over 1000 species!
Dendrobiums are primarily found in Asia, New Guinea and Australia. There are many different classifications within the genus, with species ranging from tiny miniatures to huge giants. They grow in climates ranging from hot and steamy lowlands, cool and moist mountain ranges, to seasonally dry savannas. Many are quite temperature tolerant and can be grown outside in frost free areas. We'll review a few of the important species in each classification. We will provide some basic cultural advice for each species, and there will be time for questions at the end of the program.
Please contact me (lin.peterT@yahoo.com) about availability, speaker honorariums, etc. I can also supply a plant table of various sizes as needed, or offer plants for sale.
