DENDROBIUM 'Pakbury'

Pakbury is an elegant Dendrobium with sepals resembling the Phalaenopsis. They produce large size circular flowers. The light pink narrow veins originate from the centre. The lips are dark maroon in the centre and pink in the periphery. Produces 12-18 flowers per spike and blooms throughout the year.

Education for Children

It is a good idea to invite young visitors to your orchid garden. Children too could develop interest in Orchids as they are very rewarding. Supplying orchid plants and starter kits will be a good way to get beginners to learn. Websites of course will be a useful place for the 'techy' generation. Parents underestimate their children and sometimes a bit of autonomy for them will surprise you.
