Newly redone site
 
Orchid Digest recently ran a letter from www.ecuagenera.com The site is
really nice, offers cultural info, pretty pics. Even if you can't import and
your orchid society can't put together a $1500 order for delivery at a local
show, the site is still worth a look-at. Soon they'll offer free orchid
postcards, so they say. Anyway, it's educational and fun to look at the
pics.

Eric Christensen just talked about Ecuagenera at the Paph Guild in his
discussion of teh trouble over Phrag kovachii. He lauded Pepe Portillo as
one of teh few businesses doing business the right way in terms of CITES and
international trade by gettign the proper govenmental permits, flasking
indigenous orchid seeds, and growing them up for sale. Christensen says
Portillo is the largest employer in his town (he employs 33 people) and says
Portillo credits his understanding of teh English language to be the best
thing he ever did to better his situation and facilitate his business. I
guess that is also why he wants to bring a teacher to his town in order to
teach English to his workers and their families.
