2019 6.2.11.8 The Roy T. Fukumura Award

The Roy T. Fukumura Award is given to the grower of the orchid plant, either species or hybrid, which is regarded as the most outstanding example of the genus Vanda, those genera in the subtribe Aeridinae (=Sarcanthinae) which hybridize with Vanda, and their intergeneric hybrids, excluding Phalaenopsis, awarded during the preceding calendar year. A plant may be simultaneously eligible for both the Fukumura and the Fuchs Awards; however, the plant may not win more than one of these Awards. The award was established in 1993 and endowed by donations to honor Mr. Roy T. Fukumura.

No Awards are eligible for this annual award
