July Speaker. Our Speaker for July was Renate Faast with a power point presentation on two Caladenia
species [rigida and tentaculata] in the Mt Lofty Ranges. Renate showed a species-specific
sexual deception of thynnine wasps pollination of C. tentaculata and that generalist insects
visited and bore pollinia from C. rigida. She revealed that up to 94% of flowers and 36% of
seed capsules were browsed, whereas leaf herbivory was less prevalent. Using video
surveillance the white-winged chough was found to be a florivore. A fascinating talk!

the orchid and the grower written on a tag tied to the cut spikes. Deliver them to 18
Cambridge St, Vale Park on Tuesday 24th
August so that they can be packed. This is the
August meeting day. Les is flying out very early the next morning so will not be at the
meeting. This is a chance to showcase to the rest of Australia what South Aussies can grow.
You never know you might win a prize.
TROPHIES
Trophies held by last year’s winners will need to be brought in
for the August meeting for display at the show.

FOR YOUR INFORMATION - NOSSA NEWS
JUDGES MEETING There will be no judging meeting in September.
Judges are to meet at 7.45am on Saturday 18th September to start judging the
Spring Show at 8.00 sharp. We hope to complete judging by 10.00am when
the show opens to the public.
Secretary Another change: For the present Robert Lawrence has taken over the responsibility of
Secretary.
Orchid Seeds & Fungi Wanted
I'm looking for anyone that would be willing
to provide access to orchid seed and fungi
from their privately owned bush block for
experiments on symbiotic orchid germination.
All results will be made freely available via
journals and web site. The material required is
quite minimal, and low impact on the orchid's
health. It may be a great way to cultivate your
own orchids for reintroduction back onto the
site.

NOSSA SPRING SHOW 18-19 SEPTEMBER 2010 St Bernadettes Hall, South Road, St Marys
Plants for display and sale can be taken to St Bernadette‟s Hall on Friday 17th
September
between the hours of 2pm and 8pm. Judging will commence at 8am on Saturday 18th
. The
show will be open to the public from 10am. Entries in the Floral Art section have until
10am Saturday to complete their arrangements. We need all your flowering plants to make a
show. Remember it is a show not just a contest. Your plants are there to impress and create
interest amongst the general public, not just because they are expected to win a prize.
Nomination forms will NOT be required. All plants will be judged. If you have not owned
the plant for six months or more or you do not wish your plant to be judged please indicate
by placing the letters NFJ on your plant label attached to the plant. Plants damaged in
transit to the show should display a red streamer on the pot. Parts of the damaged plant, i.e.
flowers that have been broken off, must be placed on the top of the pot. The details must be
written on the “Damaged Plant List” held at the judging table; if this is done the plant will
be judged in the normal way.
Orchid seedlings flowering for the first time should display a white streamer on the plant.
(Note: this class is for seedlings, not a mericlone - see definition of seedling in „Spring Show
Conditions‟ elsewhere in this Journal). Streamers will be available at the judging table.
All plants should have a label attached. The public like to see the name of the orchid they
are looking at. Please take care in writing your labels ensuring they are easily readable and
attach them to the plant so the judges and the public can see them.
The show closes at 4pm on Sunday 19th
. All plants to be removed by 5pm.
Please read the Spring Show Conditions elsewhere in this Journal, bring all your plants
along and enjoy the show.
60
Plastic bags: Please bring along to the show only plastic bags you will use yourself or
environmentally friendly bags that meet present standards.
Volunteers: are needed to man the entrance and raffle table, the trading table, answer
questions and assist the public in selecting plants.
Raffle plants: See Bill Dear if you have any suitable large plants in flower that can be
donated as raffle plants. Plant sales tickets can also be obtained from Bill.
No plants are for sale until the trading table opens at 10am on
Saturday morning
Exhibitor Numbers
If any new growers want a number for the spring show or have forgotten their number, see
the judges at the next meeting who have a list or can arrange to get a new number for you.
Your exhibitors number is used at all orchid clubs and societies in South Australia.
New exhibitor Number Pauline Meyers 443
Plant of the Night July 2010. Diplodium robustum ‘Red form’ Les Nesbitt
This form of the species comes from the Eastern States. I probably got this clone through
the ANOS-Vic tuber bank years ago. Although shy flowering it is better than the local green
& white form. Most plants form sterile rosettes of leaves on the leaf litter surface. It always
flowers in June. Flowers are large with reddish brown and white stripes.
Diplodium robustum is easy to grow in pots where it multiplies rapidly. Les Nesbitt grows
these plants in plastic pots. The mix used is 50% quartzite sand, 45% soil from his hill‟s
block, 5% chopped leaf mould with a pinch of blood & bone per pot. He repots the dormant
tubers each summer in at least half new mix. The largest tubers were planted in this pot to
maximize the chance of flowering plants. Flowering was not as good this year as last year.
Ten plants flowered and two plants had 2 flowers on the stem. In addition there were 15
rosettes in the 175mm squat black plastic pot. Small tubers are potted up separately to grow
up into large tubers.
The pots stand on weldmesh benches at waist height in a 50% shade cloth house in the Hills.
Light watering is applied Nov – March. Watering is heavier from April to Oct if pots dry
out. Usually there is enough rain from June to Sept and no watering is necessary. No
fertilizer is applied during the growing period.

ARTICLES / ITEMS FOR NEXT JOURNAL
Articles / items for the September journal need to reach the Editor by Friday Sept 10th
Epiphytic Species No. 3 - Dendrobium tetragonum Les Nesbitt
Common name: Tree Spider Orchid,
Distribution: From the NSW Illawarra up the east coast to NE Queensland Grows from sea level up
to 800m elevation.
There are 3 varieties according to the authority consulted. Some botanists want to split the varieties
into separate species but growers are resisting any change. All varieties have wiry pendulous stems
that open out to 4 sided pseudobulbs bearing 2-6 shiny green leaves at the end. They have thin roots
holding onto branches often near water. These roots burn easily in an Adelaide summer making
mounted plants hard to grow here. D. tetragonum never grows into a large specimen. Main
flowering period is spring but it can flower from April to November.
Variety tetragonum which comes from the southern end of the range has more numerous small
flowers produced on short pedicels from the base of the leaves. My plant always
flowers for the NOSSA Spring Show. I hang it low over a fish pond under 75% shadecloth in
summer and try to mist daily in dry weather. It is mounted on cork and is subject to good air
movement and perfect drainage.
Variety giganteum comes from Queensland. As the name suggests it has very large flowers but
fewer of them. I have tried to grow a piece several times but they slowly fade away.
Variety hayesianum comes from North Queensland rainforests and is fragrant.
Dendrobium tetragonum has been used by hybridists to lengthen the flowering season and increase
the size of blooms. Before Den. Hilda Poxon there were no Dendrobium hybrids flowering in
winter. It can throw spotted flowers. Hybrid flowers will be spidery in shape. On the down side it
passes on weak flower stems. Some well known primary hybrids are: Hilda Poxon (x speciosum),
Ellen (x kingianum), Star of Gold (x falcorostrum) and Suzanne (x bigibbum).
Morialta NOSSA Diplodium Special Wed June 23rd Clive Chesson
The Diplodium special at Morialta Conservation Park, a midweek fieldtrip, was attended by 10
members and their 3 guests who met at the main car park at 10am. Young Will, 4 years old, the
leaders grandson was seconded as assistant leader. Will got straight into his duties, showing
everyone as they arrived the Koala in a nearby gum tree. His enthusiasm continued through the
morning as he maintained his position at the front of the group guiding the way leaving the leader to
find and discuss the orchids.
Orchids seen on the day, in flower, were: the tall shell-orchid Diplodium alatum; the robust shell-
orchid D. robustum; the red-banded / blood greenhood Urochilus sangineus; the dwarf greenhood
Pterostylis nana (Adelaide Hills
form) and the mosquito orchid
Acianthus pusilla though most of
the latter were fruiting. The large
gnat orchid Cyrtostylis robustus
and the veined helmet-orchid
Corybas diemenicus were showing
basal leaves +/- early flower buds
whilst the nodding greenhood
Pterostylis nutans and the common
donkey orchid Diuris pardina were
only displaying, respectively, a
basal rosette of leaves or a single
leaf. Diplodium alatum C. Chesson Diplodium robustum C. Chesson
62
The two Diplodium species appeared to have produced some natural hybrids with the
sighting of a number of orchids with the flower and short stem or caulis of D. robustum but
having the small cauline leaves of D. Alata.
With sightings of 9 orchid species, I think all of us were well satisfied with what we had
found.
On conclusion of this field trip our assistant leader was asked: "Well Will, what's an orchid?"
He replied: "Its green with white stripes". Well, it was the Diplodium Special field trip after
all!
ORCHID OF THE MONTH
Corybas Salisb., helmet-orchids.
Etymology: The name is derived from the Greek „Korybas‟, one of the dancing priests of
the goddess Cybele in Phrygia, or a drunken man, an allusion perhaps to the flower‟s
resemblance to the priest‟s head-dress, or to the stoop of a drunken man.
Distribution and habitat: This large conglomerate genus of over 100 species ranges from
the sub-Antarctic Macquarie Island, through New Zealand, Oceania, New Guinea and South
East Asia as far as the Himalayas. There are at over 20 Australian species.
There are at least four segregate genera ie
1: Species with orbicular leaves, flowers flared, with small lateral sepals and petals; ie
Corysanthes R.Br., mostly Australian species.
2: Species with variable leaves and flowers, long spidery lateral sepals and petals ie
Nematoceras. There is only one „Australian‟ species from Macquarie Island but many in
New Zealand.
3: Species with leaves caudate, green above, red below, flowers rather tubular; Anzybas DL
Jones et al., including several Australian species.
4: Corybas sensu stricto, species such as Corybas aconitiflorus of the eastern states but none
in South Australia.
Most of the species favor cool shaded habitats.
Description:
All South Australian helmet orchids are dwarfed, glabrous plants, with a single leaf pressed
to the ground. The flowers are single, unscented, purplish, hardly raised above the leaf.
Despite their small size they do appear large in comparison with the rest of the plant.
The petals and sepals are dimorphic, the top sepal and labellum large and colored, the lateral
sepals and petals tiny and colorless. After flowering the peduncle elongates rapidly to 30cm
tall to assist in seed dispersal
Helmet orchids are lovers of humid, well shaded habitat. They may form extensive colonies
through vegetative increase.
