This month's issue features a beautifully illustrated article on Dendrobium bigibbumby Peter Adams designed to help sort out this variable species and a detailed article continuing StigDalström's series on the orchids of Bhutan, featuring the genusThunia, plants not often seen in today's collections. In addition, Joseph Arditti discusses Conrad Gesner, an outstanding botanist from the 16th century.
