For those of you who have been growing Angs for a while, this name will undoubtedly have caught your attention. I was never privileged enough to ever visit The Angraecum House (or even Hoosiers) but I am grateful for the work this man has done for Angraecoids and bringing them into the light of mainstream orchid growing. His legacy will live on, I'm sure.
His death follows the passing of Joyce Stewart in January. These two were the cornerstone of African Orchids and Angraecoids...to have both gone in one year is truly tragic and a huge loss for the orchid world. I'm hoping that renewed interest in these orchids in the young blood will keep their memory alive.
