Default orchids

Anyone interested in orchids might like to read about this project at
a Somerset school.

I heard an excellent talk last evening by 18-year old Callum Swift
who features in the article. His enthusiasm and confidence is
amazing. He says they are the largest orchid breeding project in UK.
They supply plants to the Eden project and Kew.
You may have seen their stand at Chelsea last year. They won a gold
medal on their first appearance there!
