This site is devoted to orchids as could be expected from a site with the name Orchidaceae (Orchidaceae is the Latin name used in botanical science to denote the family of orchids). In it you will find information on societies, shows, literature and a great deal more. In the near future we hope to expand the site with taxonomic, cultural and other information on specific genera, illustrated with numerous pictures.
To navigate through the different sections of the site, just click the header menu. For sections that consist of multiple pages, a navigator on the left will be available to browse through them.
If you have never grown orchids before, I hope this site will inspire you to try it. If you are already an orchid enthusiast I hope you will find the site a source of useful information and inspiration.
