Orchids in the wild DVDs

[ChipMolly]

Can folks recommend documentary DVD titles about orchid culture or orchids in the wild?

hmm ... I remember watching a documentary online - I think it was generally about the Fakahatchee Strand, but did focus on the orchids there quite a bit - but, I can't remember if it was Nat'l Geo, PBS, or what ...

I did find this on the PBS site Obsession with Orchids - Introduction | Nature | PBS

Hopefully other members can help out!

Thanks Sonya looks like there're no further suggestions from people. I was hoping for docos about people travelling into the wilderness in different parts of the world to find native orchids in-situ. Botanyboy1 on youtube does fantastic home videos of the wild Japanese orchids. Would love to see more of those types. But there're none by the looks of it. Pity.

Stig Dalstrom, the "Wild Orchid Man", has several videos out that involve orchid hunting. They're not totally focused on orchids, but they're pretty good. Especially for the armchair explorer. He's associated with the Marie Selby Gardens in Sarasota so he knows what he's talking about.
