Speaking of bulbos, Bill Thoms shares with us the first in a series of articles on this fascinating genus. If you've read Bill's prior articles or his book, you know he knows his stuff.  Rounding out this month's issue is an article by Dino Zelenika on the orchids of Myanmar.In addition to our features, this issue also contains another GREATIdea by Jean Allen-Ikeson, another in Tom Mirenda's monthly checklists written in his usual friendly style as well as the first in a two-part series on the cypripediums of China.
