2019/01 January ORCHIDS Magazine
In this issue, David Rosenfeld, MD continues his multipart series Who Were These Guys? with George Ure Skinner and Larry Sexton takes us on an armchair tour of the orchids of Ecuador. Clare and Johan Hermans treat us to the first of two articles on the Japan Grand Prix International Orchid Festival, now in its 29th year, and Ron McHatton shares some photos of the 2018 Taiwan International Orchid Show, another of the world's major shows. Under the Lindleyana banner, Pascal Sauvêtre describes Maxillaria crispiloba, a new species of Maxillaria with large, dramatic flowers.
Rounding out this issue, Sue Bottom, in her For the Novice installment, urges us to try new things, Wesley Higgins and Peggy Alrich discuss Epipactis, Franco Pupulin discusses Stenotyla lankersteriana and Jean Allen-Ikeson shares with us ideas for making more space (none of us need that do we?). And, for our judges, Jean details more useful features of OrchidsPlus and the other accessible orchid databases.
