Tonight's Program:
Luiz Hamilton Lima
The Fascinating and Ever-Surprising Bifoliate Cattleyas of Brazil

Luiz Hamilton Lima

Luiz Hamilton Lima has been an aficionado of the Brazilian Cattleyas since age nine, when he cultivated Cattleya violacea in a lath house, built by his father, in the back yard of their home in Manaus, Amazon, Brazil. In this lecture Luiz reviews the beautiful species Cattleyas from Brazil - unifoliate and bifoliate, discusses habitat and gives growing and flowering tips for the outdoor, indoor and greenhouse orchid grower.


A 'not to be missed' lecture for those orchidists who love exotic Cattleya species - The Queen of Orchids!




Come and join us as we explore this wonderful group of plants.
