ITEMS OF INTEREST

To encourage novices and retain new members

the 30 minute discussion group before monthly

general meetings in the Cry Room will be

recommenced. The first meeting will be held in

July and will provide general information about

the structure of an orchid and what orchids are

good for Novices to start with. It will commence at

7:30pm.

The AOCC2018 Committee are still calling for

volunteers to assist in the running of the

conference on Friday 20 to Sunday 22 July. As a

volunteer, your entry will be free all day for their

services but not to the speaker program. Time

slots still available are Saturday and Sunday 8.00

am-12.30 pm and 12.30-5.00pm. You are asked to

contact Toni Benton on 4754 5480 or send an

email to [email protected].

The Society is entering 2 tables in Class D, Table

Top Display in the AOC Conference in July. With

Setup being on Wednesday 18th July, people who

are entering plants need to take them to Jan's

house on Tuesday 17th July. Jan and George will

transport the plants to the conference however

depending upon the number of plants being put

in the display, more than Jan's and George's cars

may be required to transport the plants on

Wednesday and return them on Sunday. If

anyone would like to assist with transporting the

plants, please contact Jan on 9520 6920. Gary

Hodder kindly volunteered his car.

Bunnings BBQ will be held on 8 July. The volunteer

roster was circulated for members to put their

name against.

Our Winter Show will be held this Thursday, Friday

and Saturday. The volunteer roster was circulated

for members to put their name against. Show

setup will be on Wednesday. Plants may be

brought in from 2 – 5 pm. If you cannot make it

during this time, you can make arrangements with

someone to take your plants. Please complete

the booking in sheets and yellow cards for your

plants. If you are putting plants on the sales table

you need to use the yellow tags , which can be

obtained from John Costa. Bunnings provided

$150 in sponsorship and not $250 as previously

advised. We also received a cheque for $300

from SSC Bushcare. Orchids Supplies by George

and Mike are providing $300 in sponsorship.

Members were asked to take some flyers to

distribute or to put on a shopping centre or

suburban notice boards. Taren Point Public School

will advertise the show on their electronic display.

Unfortunately the Sutherland Shire edition of the

Leader only published the Show details for

Thursday. and not Friday and Saturday.

Please note that the committee has voted to NOT

sell any orchid species or hybrids that are native

to NSW on our sales table at our winter show.

Under the new law which came into affect earlier

this year, our Society needs a licence to sell NSW

native species and native hybrid orchids to the

public. This includes ANY orchid hybrid that

contains a species that is native to NSW. The aim

of this new law is not directly targeted at individual

growers and societies, but is instead aimed to stop

the illegal collection from the wild and sale of our

protected orchid species and other plants. The

committee is currently looking into obtaining a

licence for the Society, however as the penalties

for not complying with these requirements is

considerable the Society won't have a licence in-

time for the Winter Show. Therefore no sale of

these orchids will be allowed at our Winter Show.

The only exception being if growers already have

their own personal licence to sell NSW native

orchids. This law only applies to the public sale of

orchids, and does not apply to private sales and

the sales table at our monthly meetings.

Our auction last month was very successful with

the Society's commission being $475 plus $220 for

the sale of Gordon Kay’s 6 donated plants,

totalling $695. This is an improvement on last

year’s effort. The standard of plants offered was

high and buyers would have gone home satisfied.

Novice member's draw of Gordon Kay's orchid -

June Black

Name badge draw – Col Brandon

Lucky plants - Not drawn. These will be drawn at

the July meeting.

President's award - Lee Buivid's Gungora

Raffle - Jan Robinson, Chris Bannell, Sandra Crosby

(2), Jenny Sharpham, Robert Cawley, Pat Dos

Santos, Mark Charleston.

Next meeting: 9 July 2018

YOU GREW IT

Tuberolabium kotoense –

exhibited by Irene and Ian Chalmers

Pronounced : too – ber – oh - LAY – bee – um

Found only in Taiwan in montane* forests at

elevations around 300 metres making it a hot

growing sympodial* epiphyte*.

This miniature species is from the Vandaceous

family but has the growth habits of a Phalaenopsis

and grows best under Phalaenopsis conditions. It

has thick leathery leaves that grow to about 10

cms.

It is best grown mounted on tree fern or cork to

best display the pendulous inflorescence that are

about 15 to 25 cm and emerge from between the

leaves. The inflorescence carry between 10 to 40

tiny flowers are 1 to 1.5 cm waxy in appearance and

open simultaneously. The flowers are white and

the labellum* is white with a purple fringe and are

very fragrant.

A hot house grower should be mounted or grown

in a small pot with chunky, quick draining mix.

Grow in semi shade, no direct sun, high humidity

and even moisture but does not like to stay wet.

NOTE:

Montane – inhabiting mountainous country.

Sympodial – growing from a new lead forming a

new pseudobulb with each growth.

Epiphyte – Most orchids are epiphytes. They

attach to tree branches and trunks but are not

parasites.

Labellum – the lip of the orchid.

Dendrobium tiongii

– exhibited by Lee Buividis

This large warm growing epiphyte, from the

Philippines, that is found growing at elevations of

500-1000 metres. The long canes can grow to over

one metre in length and despite their length are

usually erect. The elongate* stems have papery

leaves on the upper 2/3’s of the canes.

The blooms appear on the opposite side of the cane

to the leaves. The very short inflorescence* can

have up to 40 smallish flowers. The bunched,

arrangement of flowers are yellow to orange with a

bright red blotch at the junction of the side lobes

and the labellum.

A species very similar is Dendrobium

bullenianum. The major differences being that

Dendrobium tiongii has erect stems no matter how

long and the flowers are solid in colour and never

stripped as with D. bullenianum.

NOTE : Elongate – stretched or extended

Inflorescence – the shoot or stick that the flowers are arranged on that arises from the plant.

Dendrobium secundum –

exhibited by Peter Ng

Commonly referred to as the “toothbrush orchid”,

relating to the spray of flowers on the

inflorescence.

Found throughout S.E.Asia to the Philippines in

semi deciduous dry lowland forests growing from

sea level to 700 metres. A hot to warm grower has

semi pendulous sulcate* stems that taper at both

ends.

The inflorescences appear on last year’s mature

leafless canes usually towards the end of the cane

and are 12 to 15cm in length and have up to 50

waxy, glossy, fragrant flowers that do not open

fully and all face in the one direction and on one

side of the inflorescence giving the appearance of

a tooth brush. The colour varies from pale pink to

magenta with an orange labellum.

This orchid is best mounted to accommodate the

pendulous habit of the plant but can be grown well

in a pot. The pot should be as small as possible and

allowed to dry out between watering. Resume

water and fertiliser after a winter rest period when

the new grows appear in spring.

NOTE:

Sulcate – grooved or furrowed

Cadetia collina

– exhibited by Richard Dimon

Page 7: Sutherland Shire Orchid Society July 2018 Articles This ... · Rhonda Jackson thejackson4@bigpond.com 0407 458 784 Editor: Richard Dimon dimon.richard@gmail.com. 2 SSOS ANNUAL GENERAL

7

Pronounced: ka – DET – ee – ah

Native to Papua and New Guinea, found at

elevations of 60 to 900 metres, growing on smooth

barked limbs of large trees in seasonally dry

lowland forests.

This orchid is from the Dendrobium “subtribe” but

is very different to most dendrobiums. This robust

small hot growing epiphyte has single globulous*

leaves and has a growth habit somewhat similar to

that of a Pleurothallis. The inflorescence is short,

about ½ cm and emerges from the base of the

leaf, sometimes two from the same point. The

inflorescence has a single flower that is about 1cm

across. The flower has white petals and sepals with

a white lip that has a rose-pink fringe around the

lip.

Cadetia grow very similar to tropical

bulbophylums.

NOTE:

Globulous – almost round or rounded on each end.

SSOS Winter Show

– A big success!

Well done to you 28 members who

exhibited plants in our Winter Show, every orchid

added a bit of colour and interest to our Show

Benches. Everyone had been saying that they

wouldn’t have many flowers out for the Show but

we still ended up with 151 plants benched, a very

good effort. Congratulations to Sandra and Tony

for winning Grand Champion as well as Reserve

Champion. Their grand champion plant,

Oncidium sotoanum ‘Joy’ HCC/AOC, was

magnificently flowered and won Best Specimen as

well as Champion Species. Sandra told me that

their lovely plant had been bought as only a very

small seedling from the late Neville Roper years

and years ago when our shows were still at Swanes

Nursery. Their Reserve Champion and Champion

Native Species or Hybrid, Dendrobium Hilda

Poxon ‘G100’, was also very well flowered and also

won second –best specimen plant. As our best

species plant, ‘Joy’ has been entered into the

Affiliated Societies annual competition, as has

Hilda Poxon ‘G100’ as our best hybrid of the show.

Thank you, Gary Hodder, for taking the

professional quality photos of these two

competition entries.

Champion Cymbidium Hybrid was won by

Archie with his stunning yellow Clarence Glory x

Amber Harvest. To fill the empty show bench

tables along the windows, Archie brought in more

cymbidiums that were not entered into the judging

but helped to fill the room with flowers, thank you

so much, Archie. Archie also sourced the beautiful

raffle prize orchids for us—and weren’t they a big

hit! We sold heaps of raffle tickets and two of our

own members won two of the four prizes, although

how Heath is going to fit that big cymbid into his

already-crowded collection is anyone’s guess.

Good luck with that, Heath.

Speaking of stunning yellow, if you think

you might have seen that huge paph before that

won Champion Paphiopedilum Hybrid, you are

right. John Costa got Paph Sheerline ‘Rondo’ from

Cheryl who has also won a Championship or two

with the “mother plant” Sheerline ‘Rondo’ over the

Page 8: Sutherland Shire Orchid Society July 2018 Articles This ... · Rhonda Jackson thejackson4@bigpond.com 0407 458 784 Editor: Richard Dimon dimon.richard@gmail.com. 2 SSOS ANNUAL GENERAL

8

years. If there are any spare pieces of ‘Rondo’

around, John or Cheryl, I know a few members

who would love to acquire them.......!

Vic Petrovski did very well, winning both

Champion Laeliinae Hybrid and Champion

Oncidiinae Hybrid. Did you happen to notice the

unusual name of Vic’s champion catt? It was

Cattleya TA2 which was the only name on this

particular flask that Vic bought some years ago.

Another plant out of this same flask won

Champion Laeliinae Hybrid this year at the Royal

Easter Show and Vic reminded me the flower was

completely different from this one and obviously

came out a lot earlier! You never know what you

are going to get out of a flask.............

Sandra and Tony also won Champion

Pleuro Hybrid or Species with Masd. Bridie ‘Dawn

Moon’ and the Chalmers Duo of Ian and Irene took

out Champion Other Orchid with yet another

stunning yellow flower, their beautiful lycaste

seedling with a name worth remembering: Lycaste

Auchita x Mpm Kage-Yuki Mito, how’s that for a

mouth full? Cheryl Matheson won Champion

Orchid Exhibited by a Novice, Intermediate or

Junior with not Paph Sheerline ‘Rondo’ this time,

but with Oncid Wildcat ‘Carmela.’ Well done,

Cheryl, your days in the Intermediate division are

numbered!!

Wal Chapman as usual brought a lovely

table top display that drew a lot of interest from

the public. How about for our Spring Show, a few

more of you put in a table top and give Wal some

competition?

The Show was very successful

financially as well, we more than covered our costs,

so it was definitely a “Winner, Winner, Chicken

Dinner” as one of my American cousins would say!

If you have any feedback about our Winter Show,

whether positive or negative, please let one of the

Committee members know on Monday night as we

are already planning the Spring Show. Thanks

again to everyone who participated in the Winter

Show, a lot of volunteer hours went into making it

such a success. Special thanks go to George and

Mike, whose business ‘Orchid Supplies by George

& Mike’ generously sponsor the prize vouchers for

first and second place winners.

What’s next on our show agenda? The AOC

Conference this month, the Society is putting on a

two table top display which hopefully we will have

enough orchids to fill. Come to our monthly

meeting on Monday night and find out more about

this event.

21st AOC Orchids in the Foothills Update -Vanilla

Challenge

The local community are participating in an

exciting initiative - the “Honour The Vanilla

Orchid" Challenge, to make people aware that

vanilla comes from an orchid plant (Vanilla

planifolia) and to celebrate the contribution of

vanilla to cuisine throughout history. Cafes and

restaurants in the Richmond-Windsor region have

created a “vanilla flavoured’ item for sale to

customers, preferably by using Australian grown

vanilla, with prizes to be awarded at the Opening

Ceremony.
