Default Maribyrnong Orchid Show


The Maribyrnong orchid society staged arguably the best of their 3 or 4
annual orchid shows yesterday. The Maribyrnong Club is based in the western
suburbs of Melbourne, Vic., Australia and has a many members. A lot of great
orchids were on display and most noteworthy were the Dendrobium
(thelychiton) speciosums. The grand prize winner was (yet again) a bridal
veil - Dockrillia teretifolium " Newbold'
Cymbidium Pearl Dawson was very eye catching (Plant photo failed) along with
Cym Ten Pin 'No.1', but Masdevallia pachyura fluttered many a heart there!
Dendrobium speciosum 'Taipan' X 'Watellow' was outstanding.
