      krisk replied to the thread Help for Paph. sangii.
      Always water to the conditions and media, don't use rules. You typically get the best root growth with Paphs by watering less, and...

      Working in the lab, I've often thought to myself, this process is just insanely complex and labour intensive. I wonder if people truely...

      I was hoping someone might have some experience sowing any of the following species? I'm not looking for media recommendations per se...

      Yep, a very nice one for sure.

      krisk replied to the thread Cyp. japonicum.
      I would say that seems about right. I don’t know specifically for japonicum, but that’s roughly when we do kentuckiense

      I usually give most of my Paphs a fairly dry winter, particularly micranthum and armeniacum. I must admit though these ones still do...

      krisk replied to the thread Catasetum pileatum 'Oro Verde'.
      I do really like these. You still need a hot house even here in South Australia for these, as it’s still not consistently warm enough...

      krisk posted the thread Paph charlesworthii in Paphiopedilum.
      It really is hard to go past a good charlesworthii. An oldie but a favourite for sure. Quite easy to grow and flower too, especially in...

      I’ve crossed them all, but they are siblings which originated from a show in Singapore around 15 years ago. I deflasked these ones 13...
