Speaker: Jim Freeman
Topic: Epicatts: Uncommon Beauties

Using an Orchid Digest slide show by Marianne Matthews, Jim Freeman will present an enlightening look at this hybrid genus with many attractions for indoor hobbyist growers to explore!

Note: Encyclias have recently been split up into a number of new genera like Prosthechea, Coilostylis, and Pollardia, but for the purposes of hybrid names they’re all still called Epidendrums, thank goodness.
