Find Orchid Family Trees at OrchidRoots.com
Find hybrid orchid family trees at OrchidRoots.com. This website compiles information about orchid species, hybrids, and hybrid parents. Searches can be done by looking for a named variety or browsing through genus lists. Hybridizers used to need to consult multiple volumes of The Sanders List of Orchid Hybrids for this data, until paid software offered digitized records. Now, everyone can find free listings with photos and culture information, when available, at OrchidRoots.com. For example, searching for Epicattleya Veitchii yields a page with four pictures of the hybrid and three pictures of each of its parents. It also links to two hybrids descended from Epicattleya Veitchii.
