    Wanted Scam alert! Do not engage with hyyui87 or "Mark6678"

    Yeah that's weird. I looked them up earlier and saw there were no posts by that user. But maybe the user still exists? Here is a screenshot of their original note to me here on ST:

    Wanted Scam alert! Do not engage with hyyui87 or "Mark6678"

    Hi all, I have confirmed that a member here, hyyui87, is a scammer, along with their supposed affiliate Mark6678 [email protected]. I posted last fall looking for Phrag. dalessandroi "Verified" x sib. I just saw that in mid December 2023 I got a direct message from hyyui87 telling me...

    Divide a Phrag?

    What media is it in? Hard to tell from the photos alone.

    Wanted Phrag dalessandroi "Verified" x sib

    Glenn at Piping Rock had Phrag dalessandroi "Verified" x sib for sale for quite a while, and I deeply wish I would've gotten one. They're super hard to find now. I love the shape, the extra yellow in the center, and the thin yellow strip around the dorsal sepal. Photo below, same one that used...

    Wanted Good Phrag. besseae

    Just want to bump this thread, I'm looking for a good besseae, too. Doesn't need to be the round OZ breeding lines. If anyone has any leads (or divisions! 😄) I would be super interested. Thanks!!

    Two new Phrags with odd spots

    Hi all, I just want to double check that everything looks ok here. Many thanks for positive or negative input, need to keep my other plants safe. The first set of pics is from a kovachii hybrid from eBay, the plant looks extremely healthy, but there are these odd circular spots. Non-pathogen...

    New Paph. tigrinum, bad roots

    This is really helpful thanks so much! I read a few years back several posts about tigrinum liking it drier and chunky mix. This tigrinum though seems too small with too bad of roots to pull off a dry chunky mix, does that sound like the right logic? Also I don’t have bark or perlite, I’d...

    New Paph. tigrinum, bad roots

    I purchased a Paphiopedilum tigrinum off of eBay maybe a month ago. It's a multi-growth plant, one big old growth (very long leaves) that's dying back and two new growths that look to be maybe a year old. It came soaked and in a small pot, so I let it dry out and then checked the roots and...

    Paph. tigrinum 'Peanut' AM/AOS

    Was this from the batch around ~ April 2020, seedlings were $75 each, root systems were pretty unimpressive, I think shipped from... Hawaii? Wondering because I got one of those and it has been pretty quiet since I got it! Hasn't grown much. Yours is so lovely. Also what mix do you have it in...

    Visited Fair Orchids today!

    No sorry I repotted this when I got home! Kim had it in sphagnum for the top half and a fine bark + perlite mix in the bottom half. The cultivar is ("Aggie" x "Howard") This is actually my third Mexi. My other two Mexi I've had for years in small orchiata, they were super slow growing, and out...
