Here is a seedling purchased from SVO a few years ago. I really never figured I would get anything awarded after growing for 48+ years. I was never too motivated to take anything to the judging center as they were always too far away and I simply enjoyed growing and flowering many different...

One of my favorites flowering in the greenhouse today.

These two are flowering in the greenhouse today. Pot Loud Nine and a cross with Pot Loud Nine as the pollen parent...I didn't take a photo of the tag...maybe later.

In flower on my bench in the greenhouse today.

Registration submitted and accepted today. These are the photos sent to the RHS. I posted the first bloom earlier as CA913. A few more picts today in natural light. It appears to be a successive bloomer with 2 flowers and 2 buds currently showing. Three more plants currently in spike!

Here is the first bloom from flast CA913 - Phragmipedium Jordan’s Peach Tango x kovachii ‘Peruvian Dream’ There are a few more in bud so look forward to seeing the variation in the first few.

Here is a first bloom seedling that caught my eye today. I just love the roth primaries.

I used to grow quite a number of Paphs...it's been too many years. Decided this one had to come home with me. I am so glad I decided to take the plunge!

Another gorgeous phrag. in flower under lights. Phrag. Waunaukee Sunset 'Cherry'...thanks to Chuck Acker for finding a division for me a couple of years ago.

Here is one from SVO breeding. Blooming for the second time. When I get two or more flowers on it, it goes to judging. It could be my first award...we will see.

Here is a beautiful, fragrant little thing...wish I knew what it was. Had a tag but faded beyond reading. Too bad. The color and stance are quite good. The pict has not been modified except to make it smaller.

Here is a nice example of Phrag. St. Ouen in the plant room today. I was very surprised at the delightful fragrance...quite unexpected!

Here is another from the Appleton collection happily blooming in the plant room.

This is one I grew from flask and is flowering for the first time. It has been open for 3 days and seems to be staying quite flat.

Here is one from the Appleton collection that is currently flowering. It was one of his favorites.

The pouch is a little wonky but I just love the color!

This one totally surprised me. I never saw the bud developing. Went into the plant room today and...BAM!

Here is one from my collection that I grew from a flask I got a few years ago. This is the first to bloom and I am not displeased! It has rounder segments and is flatter than many I have seen.

Here is another gem from Roger's collection that decided to open up today. The natural spread is about 14 cm but the plant is still fairly small. I am sure it will do nothing but improve as the plant continues to grow. Thanks for looking!

Here is another one from Roger's collection that is currently flowering. No tag so I asked him what it might be. He said 'rescue from Lowes'...still a pretty Maudiae type flower.
