I am looking for published data about lifespan of miniature orchids species living in natural habitats (mainly belonging to these three genera mentioned above). Are there any studies upon such topic? Is the lifespan of such orchid species living in the wild much longer that in laboratory/home culture? Is there any correlation between orchid size and its lifespan?
Thank you in advance for any comments and suggestions.
Best regards,
Radomir
Hope the the books given below are helpful to you.
Miniature Orchids, by Steven Frowine.s(2007), Miniature Orchids by Rebecca Tyson Northen (1980), and Miniature Orchids and How to Grow Them by Rebecca Tyson Northen (1996)
Dear Colleague,
Thank you for information. I already know two volumes of book entitled A Compedium of Miniature Orchids Species by Ron Parsons et al. (2013), but these ones were not known for me.
Best greetings,
Radomir
Radomir:
I understand Raymond Tremblay has published some papers regarding some Lepanthes spp. that may be helpful. I suggest you contact him. All the best.
