2003, 8 March: Added Bletia purpurea with images (from my recent trip to Cuba). Also added a couple questions to the FAQ page and updated the events page with info about OM's 2003 Mother's Day sale. Some general page cleanup around the site.

2002, 24 August: Added Chelyorchis with images. Also added a couple upcoming shows to the main index page and fixed a couple things in the other pages. Making progress on the remaining Phrag pages, but I have to study for anatomy and pathology quizzes this weekend, so time is limited.

2002, 12 July: Added Mexipedium with images. Added the newly discovered Phragmipedium kovachii. Other Phragmipedium updates underway.

2002, 30 May: Added Euchile with new images and expanded descriptions for both species. Encyclia and Prosthechea revisions underway.

2002, 29 May: Added the intergeneric hybrid genus Laeliocattleya, in response to a reader's request for information about Laelia turneri. As far as I can determine, it is a synonym of Laeliocattleya x elegans.

2002, 22 May: Added the genus Neofinetia * †.

2002, 16 May: Completed the "backbone" work of a total Website overhaul for the entire OrchidMania website. This included adding the new search functionality and cleaning up the mangled jumble of random files and directories that had grown organically throughout the site's server depot for the past several years.

If you don't find the species you are looking for, let me know. I will determine if it's an oversight or is listed as a synonym. Be sure to check for it first by doing a search.
