    Yellow Ladyslippers - 3 varieties, 6 clones

    I am always beyond impressed to see these natives grown at all, let alone so responsibly and well. Kudos to you.

    lol ‘‘twas I.

    Paphiopedilum richardianum

    Shouldn’t there be a rule against posting heavily edited photos?

    paph. bellatulum

    You can do both.

    Gongara rufescens

    Don’t be ridiculous. It is customary to show photos of the whole plant, so that others can learn what it looks like and see how it’s grown.

    Strange question on Neofinetia breeding

    Wow. Never seen the like and I follow all the fukiran stuff. Wonder if it’s available?

    Paph gratrixianum (I think)

    Everything checks out. All the characteristics match, you were told the country of origin, I don’t see anything that can point to hybrid origin except possibly that the gratrixianum I have seen have stiffer, thicker, upright leaves — but that’s easily explained by culture. I think you’re good...

    Wanted Phragmipediums that bloom often?

    my sargentianum/lindleyanum has been in bloom since March 5 and has lots more buds left. Often... I dunno yet... but for a long time once it gets going, it's kind of amazing.

    Help for Paph. sangii

    Hmm, maybe Ray can weigh in on a comparable European seaweed auxin product? I wonder why it's not available in Europe?

    After a long wait, Liparis lilifolia!

    Thank you; I'm tempted to spit on something and wait for it to dry just to find out.

    Help for Paph. sangii

    I grow mine in Hausermann’s mix with extra sphagnum and extra perlite. I would treat yours with First Ray’s magical KelPak to get roots going and would wrap that base in good damp sphagnum so the new growths’ roots would never dry out.
