Orchids Magazine

Featured this month

Jim Cootes continues his series on the genus Dendrobium with Part 15: Dendrobium section Latouria. This section comprises some of the most unusual species in the genus, from the miniature Dendrobium aberrans to the spectacularly odd Dendrobium spectabile. The article is lavishly illustrated and covers the most popular species in the section. Clare and Johan Hermans treat us to an account of their recent trip to Madagascar during the rainy season, a place that most of us will never see in person. Rounding out our features, Tatiana Arias and collaborators discuss the genus Sacoila in Florida.
