An overview over my work with orchids in China
Hengduan Biotech Ltd. – who we are and what we do
A introduction to our company, a German nursery and orchid lab registered in Sichuan province, China, specialized in slipper orchids, but working on a much wider range of orchids as well as other plants.
Cypripedium Mass-Propagation as a potent Conservation Tool
For more than a century cypripedium populations in the wild were depleted by commercial collectors, leading to a considerable loss of populations and local extinction. In the late 20th century pioneers of cypripedium in-vitro propagation have devised feasible ways of laboratory mass-propagation that today can be used on an industrial scale. The talk gives a brief overview of the genus Cypripedium, explains in detail its propagation from seed and introduces some of the most important pioneers in the field.
