As I'm almost certain I said before, I did get vol 182 on one of my mail accounts. It's somewhat shortened version is below (I deleted the header and complete copies of previous mails to keep the size down).

To: [email protected] Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed Dear colleagues : In an article published in Arditti[ed.]'s book, Orchid Biology : Reviews and Perspectives, III, Leonard J. Lawler writes : "North America : A species of Habenaria was used to provide salep." The author gives the following references : Hogg, R., 1858 The vegetable kingdom and its products. W. Kent, London. Yearsley, G. G. 1976 Orchids---not just pretty flowers. Orchid Review 84 : 231-233. 1) If you have access to these references, could you indicate which species Lawler refers to ? 2) If you are aware of other sources in which the names of species used to produce salep in North America are mentioned, please provide the references. Thanks in advance for your help.

I just bought a Brasada that has a name tag that says Hilo Sunrise. I know it is a cross of a Brassia x Ada, and with that name it probably was made in Hawaii. Any Ideas of the parentage? I have an old Orchidwiz but it is not in there. Jerry on Vancouver Island were it is now Warm and Sunny!! ------------------------------ Message: 4 Date: Thu, 31 May 2007 23:42:35 -0400 From: "icones" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [OGD] Habenaria as salep ?

Orchids, Their Structure, History and Culture. Unfortunately this reference does not list the species name either, just says salep is made from a species of Habenaria in North America. icones End of Orchids Digest, Vol 9, Issue 182 *************************************** _______________________________________________ the OrchidGuide Digest (OGD) [email protected] http://orchidguide.com/mailman/listinfo/orchids_orchidguide.com
