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.
