Flowering calendar

The data on flowering times is compiled from added data by users and from a huge amount of discriptions gathered through database integration. They are intended to inform you about orchid flowering times in habitat if you want to plan a trek or for cultivation purposes as flowering is often linked to dormancy. The data is offered until a certain coarse resolution, an exact location is an open invitation for poaching. The lists returned also contains the date: that of the last year of observation in that month on that spot.
