At our May meeting, we'll be showing a recorded talk by Fred Clarke on Catasetums.  This fascinating genus of orchids produces male or female flowers depending on the light level; the showy male flowers arise if you cultivate in lower light, the green but intricate female flowers if you cultivate in brighter light.
