White Orchids are Wonderful Gift for Any Occasion

Receiving a white orchid is truly a majestic and stunning gift. While we always want to receive a bouquet of beautiful flowers, it sometimes saddens us to watch them wilt and die in the following days despite taking care of them. A white orchid on a pot is a better gift since it will still be alive in the coming months or perhaps years. There is no need to throw it away even with minimal care unless you take it for granted.

If you are likely to forget to take care of your plant, it is important that you write a reminder every now and then or have your friends or coworkers to remind you as well. This ensures that you are not going to kill the plant. It will be embarrassing if the person who gave the plant to you would know that you are not taking care of the plant well. Receiving a white orchid will add an elegant touch to any room or office so it should be an honor taking care of one. A lot of people will think that you have a good taste in having white orchid on your desk. It is also a great way to demonstrate your gardening skills without the large garden to take care.

Amesiella monticola,

Amesiella monticola, from Nueva Vizcaya (central Luzon) in the Philippines, is described and illustrated as new. Introduction The genus Amesiella was previously considered to be monotypic. During the past decade, the authors have cultivated and studied many clones of Amesiella philippinensis including a population of what was loosely referred to as the "albinistic form" of this taxon. We believe these clones constitute a separate, and readily identifiable species, which is described here as new. Taxonomy Amesiella monticola J.E. Cootes et D.P. Banks sp. nov. TYPE: PHILIPPINES. Cultivated ex Luzon, Nueva Vizcaya: Imugan area, alt. c. 2,000 metres, November 1995, M. Errington ME001/97 (holotype: NSW [sheet no. 421898]; isotype CANB [sheet no. 9804189]). Species haec A. philippinensis (Ames) Schltr. affinis, sed aliter forma labelli; floribus odoratis; calcari nectarii multo longiore, differt. Description Growth habit: upright, monopodial, 2.5 cm tall x 16 cm wide. Roots: 4....

Paphiopedilum charlesworthii

Rebecca Northern, in Miniature Orchids, refers to Paphiopedilum charlesworthii as 'a stunning species' and the accompanying photograph, taken some years ago in Sydney supports this accolade. However, where have all the charlesworthii's gone? A quick review of some early copies of the Australian Orchid Review shows that this species, along with Paphiopedilum spicerianum, was the favoured shade/bush house Paph. of many growers in what today (with the sophistication of shade cloth, misting systems, etc) would be considered fairly primitive conditions! For some reason the species appears to have fallen out of favour with Paph. growers and I have not seen even a small plant, much less one of the great specimens of earlier years, benched at society meetings for a very long time. Perhaps familiarity led to some contempt for the species as 'old fashioned' and as exciting new species from Indonesia, Borneo and, more recently, the stunning Parvisepalum section from China, w...

Pescatorea coronaria

Since the mid 19th century there has been much confusion regarding exactly which genus the spectacular and horticulturally desirable orchids today known as Pescatorea best fit into. However, there has never been confusion regarding the desirability of the Pescatorea species. The Pescatorea alliance includes orchids as Bollea species (one of the best is the blue Bollea coelestis), Huntleya species, Chondrorhyncha species and some would allow Zygopetalum, a close relative, to be part of the allowance. All the aforementioned genera contain some terrific species but, to my undoubtedly biased eye, the jewels of the alliance are the Pescatorea species and, of these, the species I have selected this month, Pestcatorea coronoria, has a singular beauty. The genus Pescatorea is small, from 12-16 species, distributed from Costa Rica to Ecuador. The generic name is dedicated to M. Pescatore, a French patron of orchid species in the mid-19th century. Veitch writing 1887, lumps Pescatorea with a...
