Ecuador pictures

Hi

I will post some pictures from the Ecuador trip last month.
This first one is a test to see if the pictures turn up at all

How do I get bigger pictures, and higher quality ? Do I have to host them on another server ?

Hi Lars,

Thanks for posting those photos; that besseae has very nice petal width! We look forward to seeing the rest of the photos from the trip!

Thanks,

Most of us use either Photobucket or ImageShack for that reason. They are both free.

Thanks Lars...! Are those all phrags in the last picture??

The rock face looks very wet. Is there a constant trickle of water? I have my bessae standing in water with my Disa. I noticed a root emerging from the bottom of the pot into the water tray... I take it it is happy.

Did anyone else see the seed pods on the bessae in the 2nd pic. If only someone had tucked one into their pocket...

Nice photos. I'm looking forward to the rest.

Wow - I loved seeing those! Please post more if you have them!

Hi
Thanks


Yes notice the seedpods..... and all the small seedlings on the other picture

I have got lots of pictures.

I will post - and hopefuly in a better resolution - all you want to see.
Lots of pictures of other orchids and forest too if you want to see (more than 2000 :wink: )

Yay! Thanx for sharing.

Always interesting to see those species in situ thanks!

thanks for the shots!

that first one is almost like a OZ besseae in the petals

Yes, very round for a wild plant!

Tak for billederne !

Det må ha været en spændende tur ?

Great stuff! Lets see more......not sure about 2000 more though!:rollhappy:

Cool!

Hi
I will try again with better quality of pictures.




And the whole plant,,, notice the growthhabit



And a small colony of plants... the lower one in bud



And yet another colony.



All the plants are from the same location close to Chiguinda in Ecuador.

Not too may in flower at the time we were there, but the important thing was to see them in situ... that was big for me.

It was an amazing trip. It is not my last.

Both besseae and dalessamdroi grow at this locatiom, so are we seeing hybrids on the picture ? ..... I mean the growthhabit combined with the very round petals... I dont know


I will post more pictures later.


Lars

Here are 2 more pictures, notice the growthhabit on this one



They just love to climb on the wet rock




Lars

Those on-site pics are great, thanks a lot for sharing them!!!! Were all of those rocks wet? Jean

What do you think of this one ?
Is manzuri known in this color , like a tiny schlimii ??



(the big ugly one is me)



No wonder new species keep poping up... that is a lot of steep slopes covered with forrest

Do you have any pictures of dalesandroi? If they are both found that close to each other, then it tends to discount species status as opposed to just local forms.

If that is manzuri, it sure looks like schlimii!
