Studies on the Relative Merits of Popular Commercial Orchid Hybrids and Their Clonal Derivatives

Two orchid hybrids, Aranda Chris tine and Aranda Kooi Choo with seven clone seach, were studied with respect to the variations of morphological characters of their flowers prays. The shelf life of cut flowers and production of flowers were also investi gated. Highly significant differences occur...
