Featured this month
Jim Cootes continues his multipart series on the genus Dendrobium and its relatives with Part 21: The genus Cadetia. The members of the section have been known over the years under numerous genus names and are now considered by Plants of the World online to a section (Cadetia) of a greatly expanded genus Dendrobium. James Ackerman tells us about Dendrophylax in an article entitled "Visions of Ghosts" and Roland Schettler fills us in behind-the-scenes of the Dresden World Orchid Conference. Rounding out our August features, Kay Perry tells us about her tour of several of the famous botanical gardens of Europe
