Member Magazine “Die Orchidee”

Issue 3-2025 is out!

The June issue of our magazine once again offers a firework of orchid pictures and, of course, lots of information on our favourite plants. Whether it’s practical articles on cultivation, reports on new discoveries or all other orchid-related topics, there’s something for everyone.

Take a look at our sample article – this time on the pollination biology of the genus Ophrys – or become a member right away.

A sample of the special issue on judging is also available for viewing.

All members of the German Orchid Society receive 6 issues of our magazine “Die Orchidee” and the special issue “Bewertung” free of charge every year. Simply fill out the membership application form here.

“Die Orchidee” is the bimonthly publication of the German Orchid Society, which all members of the Society receive. It contains articles on all topics related to orchids and is one of the most renowned publications in this field in the world. Those who are interested will find detailed travel reports from the natural habitats of orchids with high-quality site photographs, field reports on new cultivation methods, but also news from the taxonomy of orchids in our magazine. Furthermore, the “Pages for Beginners” offer practical tips and tricks for newcomers, which are also readily accepted by experienced orchid lovers. If you want to get an overview of our magazine, you can browse through the table of contents of the years in which all articles are listed.

In addition, we offer you the opportunity to read a sample of a complete issue online. (Attention, this is a very large file with approx. 17 MB. This is due to the high number of images and cannot be reduced!)

  • Please number the images and use the same number when creating the caption. In the case of submissions for the online editors by e-mail, it is sufficient if the file names contain the text of the captions.
