Adelaide Orchids Australia

Species Orchids 

Our Australian Orchid Link policy is to protect our beautiful orchids in the wild, both in Australia and the whole world. So all plants listed below have been obtained through artificial propagation or from seedlings or through division of parent plants. Please note if you live in the San Francisco area ( I will be speaking at Diablo View Society, Concord, + Malahini Orchid Society, Cupertino, + Orchid Society of California, Oakland, + Sonoma Orchid Society during July) or are planning to visit the Santa Barbara Orchid Fair in July 2001 and would like to collect some of these species you will need to order and pay in advance. As I obtain these plants from another grower in Australia, I will need to pay them in advance. All species plants listed are flowering size. Price in US Dollars.
