Florida’s Million Orchid Project Shows How to Attach Them to Trees
Check out the video below for expert tips on how to attach orchids to trees. As part of Florida’s Million Orchid Project, biologists are trying to teach the public how to mount orchids. Whether it’s a native species, or a favorite non-native variety, growers can mount them using the techniques explained in the video.
In addition to restoring native species, the Million Orchid Project has also strengthened science education in South Florida schools. Botany instruction has increased, and a mobile science lab in a school bus has generated interest with schoolchildren. As the public learns more about orchids, South Florida residents will be able to grow native species at home.
