Mary Mancini will be presenting a wonderful talk on Stanhopeas and Coryanthes. She will talk about species as well as hybrids. She will also talk about care of these two unusual species and how to make them thrive. Stanhopeas grow in Mexico down to Brazil. They have large beautiful flowers that are often very fragrant. They are usually grown in open baskets so that their pendant flowers can hang down underneath the basket. Coryanthes are commonly known as the bucket orchid because of the shape of their lip. Their flowers can be up to 12″ wide and 6.5″ from top to bottom. They are an unusual orchid with complex flowers and a very unusual pollinating technique that depends on orchid bees.
