2019/02 February ORCHIDS Magazine
In this issue, Clare and Johan Hermans complete their two-part series on the Japan Grand Prix International Orchid Festival in Tokyo Japan. Closer to home, Heidi Kirkpatrick and Gayle Brodie take us on a Southern California orchid road trip. This March, the spectacular Santa Barbara International Orchid Show and San Diego County Orchid Society Shows are a mere week apart AND the AOS Members' Meeting happens to be in conjunction with the show in San Diego. Satiate your orchid cravings and plan for the road trip! Also featured in this issue, Arthur A. and Arthur E. Chadwick describe the remaking of Cattleya Prince John, first made more than 100 years ago!
Rounding out this month's issue, Franco Pupulin describes Phalaenopsis japonica in the ongoing New Refugium Botanicum series, Tom Mirenda completes his Fringe Festival Fascination and Peggy Alrich and Wesley Higgins focus on the genus Dendrobium in their ongoing Orchids Illustrated series. For our affiliated societies, Sue Bottom discusses the Care and Feeding of Orchid Society Speakers - we can all learn something here. And, for our novices, Barbara Schmidt walks us through exhibiting in an orchid show and Cindy Jepsen gives us her personal experiences with her first display.
