Last weekend’s Orchids in the Park event was impressive as always. Even though it was smaller than San Francisco’s main winter expo, there was plenty to enjoy. For myself, having grown orchids for over three decades, it’s exciting to find something I’ve never seen before. The final photo in the third row shows a species which was new to me. That strange green bloom belongs to an extremely tall Madagascar native, Oeceoclades calcarata, which towered over all the other plants with a crowded flower spike. It was far too large for me to fit into my collection, but it left me in awe of immense variety of the orchid family. Check back soon for more from Orchids in the Park.
