2023/01 January ORCHIDS Magazine

Arthur Chadwick revisits First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt's namesake Cattleya Eleanor Roosevelt in his continuing series First Ladies and Their Cattleyas. Reshu Bashyal, Jacob Phelps and Kumar Paudel introduce us to Nepal's medicinal orchid trade featuring three of Nepal's terrestrial species and Olaf Gruss, Leonid Averyanov and Chu Xuan Canh introduce us to Paphiopedilum canhii named in honor of Mr. Canh. Rounding out our January features is Part 1 of A Nod to Dendrobiums by Andrew Coghill-Behrends in which he discusses two closely related, and often confused, species in section Latouria: Dendrobium atroviolaceum and Dendrobium normanbyense.
