Title A name given to the resource Elizabeth Martinez Subject The topic of the resource Orchids: A world of color Description An account of the resource A collection of five orchids showcasing the beauty and uniqueness of some of the members of the Orchidaceae family of plants. While numbers can vary slightly by source, it is estimated that there are about 30,000 species of orchids and about 120,000 hybrids and intergenerics ( this number grows by the thousands per year). While the majority of orchids are found growing in the tropical regions of the world, they also grow in the temperate regions, and in both sides of the equator, Orchids are also found in rather cold areas, including within the Arctic Circle, There are only a small number of countries that do not have any indigenous orchids.

Chunyeah 'Fang#19' Description An account of the resource Scientific Classification: Kingdom: Plantae Clade: Tracheophytes Clade: Angiosperms Clade: Monocots Order: Asparagales Family: Orchidaceae Subfamily: Epidendroideae Tribe: Epidendreae Subtribe: Laeliinae Genus: Cattleya Appearance: Sepal and petals are usually yellow with orange splashes. The lip is a contrasting red with yellow eyes. Parentage: (Rhyncholaeliocattleya Tassie Barbero × Rhyncholaeliocattleya Kuan-Miao Chen) Provenance: From a hybridized cultivated plant not of wild origin Life Form: Epiphytic Range: Tropical regions of Central and South America, largely from Venezuela, Brazil, and Colombia. Panama is the northern limit of these species. Habitat: Varied. Species from higher elevations thrive in 2,000 to nearly 5,000 feet above sea level, almost invariably growing in the branches or on the trunks of living trees. At lower elevations, cattleyas invariably grown along the courses of streams since they need high levels of atmospheric humidity. In their native habitat, the more exposed the plants are to sunlight, the more profuse they flower. Temperature Requirements: Intermediate-Warm Bloom Season: Summer Fragrant: Yes Light Level: Medium to High Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Registered and Hybridized by Lai Teng-Hsiung Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource Registered in 1991 Subject The topic of the resource Orchids Living Collections Alternative Title An alternative name for the resource.
