Darn. I'm somewhat allergic. Also, no.

In all your visits to Columbia, have you seen a population that all look like what we call Phrag fischeri?

Thanks much!

What is the date range of electronic issues available on their website? Thanks!

Doesn't have one yet. Dunno how big these seedlings will get before they bloom.

I really like this little guy. Its staminodal shield is missing, as is not uncommon for this species. I expect it will self pollinate as it did last blooming. I'll let one pod grow and send the seeds for flasking if it gets that far. --Stephen

My breeding program of 1 available cross (this one) is legendary.

Gone

Hi all, I've got 3 free Phrag compots for the first person in the US to PM me. They are 15 months out of flask from a cross I made. One of the compots is bare root, as I kept 3 plants for myself. I don't have room for the rest. I'd like to ship them out ASAP. --Stephen

(Barbara LeAnn x Green Hornet) A beacon of light in a dark world. Eric offered me his first born in trade.

Hi all, I am looking for a BS Paph druryi. The more growths, the better. If someone has one, I can buy it or trade for a division of my Paph tigrinum: I repotted this one a few months ago. It has a couple big old roots and is putting out nice new roots. Here's its first bloom...

Thanks for all the tips! I'll let everyone know how it goes.

Hi all, I'm planning on making some pendants of a small Phrag. I have watched many YouTube videos on this, but does anyone have advice they can share? I've bought this silica gel to dry the blooms: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07WGK2KCW?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share I'm doing it in silica gel in...

Hi all, I just bloomed my first orchid hybrid: Phrag Susan Robertson (Manzur la Aldea x Barbara Leann). I named it for my late aunt. The pouch is pinched, but hopefully it is normal on subsequent blooms. This one plant bloomed 13 months out of flask. I have a bunch more that should bloom...

Great petals!

How dare you

This is widely considered to be the greatest orchid hybrid produced by mortal hands. Eric has a disturbingly large shrine to it in his living room. Pod sibs - Green Hornet x Barbara Leann --Stephen

I dunno why any of my orchids bloom 🤷‍♂️ My temps are about 65 in winter, 72 in summer. Basically whatever keeps us comfortable inside. Humidity stays at 65-75% in the cabinet. 12 hours of light per day. I don't vary it by season so as not to confuse our cockatiel who lives near the...

Finally tied up the spikes in the cabinet:
