A rothschildianum 'Dark Angel' x 'Howard Martin' from Paph Paradise... I got the flasks, grew them, and bloomed them 2 times, already, some 3 times. But this plant I sold before it bloomed. There are photos of the first and second bloom, none in my growing conditions. As you can see, and not in...

In many countries, subsidies are given to University laboratories, of various kind, to sustain their income and survival. This has resulted in a gigantic amount of incredible plant tissue culture 'research', 'peer reviewed' and accepted by the Scientific Community. Unfortunately, a large part...

Here we have Paph. Gary Romagna 'Golden Star' SM/TPS. The dorsal is 7.4cm from what I know. Again, not easy to tell it apart from a rothschildianum. This photo is roaming the internet, no idea who is the original owner, but on Facebook and internet that exact picture is used in many posts...

Beautiful Sunlight Sky Roths, identified as such. note the collection of them blooming behind... Like rothschildianum on steroids, and impossible to distinguish, except gigantic dorsal, gigantic flowers....

So, I bought from Paph Paradise 2 rothschildianum cross, Dark Angel x Howard Martin, and Paradise Island x Paradise Lost. 3 years after deflasking, I bloomed them all. Everyone can see that if the rothschildianum sold have the real pedigree, there are no ugly runts like many people post, from...

Over the course of a study sponsored by Pacific Wide/Besgrow, and carried out at Lincoln University, the following points appeared on a Phalaenopsis Sogo Yukidian 'Clone' mericlone population used for the test: * The media and root concentration were not related. Instead, the potassium...

The Bozos in action. In fact it is hard to know whether I should cry or laugh, but the libel suit promises to be interesting :evil: But at least I learned that dendrobium seedlings and cattleya seedlings hybrids are 'Australian native orchids'. Next time I will try to collect some Brazilian...

Rothschildianum 'Bumsbomber', DS 5.8 x 7.2cm, nice little thing :rollhappy: It is supposed to come from Benataran Basin a few years ago, so far it is one of the really good wild rothschildianum I spoke many times about before, if it is a wild plant, but of course such a thing cannot be :evil:

After using the CITES Trade Database Query Tool, the results are below. The reported number and quantities result from a report BY THE USFWS of WHAT THEY ALLOWED TO IMPORT AND HAS BEEN REALLY IMPORTED: First year, second 1 is for Appendix 1 CITES, third name, fourth importer (USA here), fifth...

This plant was the only survivor of a seed capsule sowed about 4 years ago. The seed capsule was a wild one, and I still have the motherplant, that took a while to recover, should bloom this year or next year. The parent was in bloom when I got it with a wild capsule as a bonus on the old...

Aka. Phallus columnaris. That is strongly suggestive to say the least. In two months it will make a few dozen huge white flowers with purple lip, cattleya shaped.

Not FCC quality by ( very) far but interesting to see. It is a much cooler growing than most amabilis ( except the Australian one apparently)

Few pictures from today, not yet the best ones blooming, but I never know if I have time to take photos, so... Micranthum from Vietnam ( the Micranthum var. vietnamense from the Japaneses...). It comes from North Vietnam, and is most likely micranthum var. eburneum. All the blooming size...

There has been a lot of questions about Orchiata here and there, so now I make a sum up, after all I am tech advisor :D As to the background and to avoid any questions as to why I post here or my purpose, yes I am paid by Orchiata to offer advise, especially to large commercial nurseries, fine...

Many people know that Paphiopedilum callosum 'JAC' is one unique plant. All the plants named 'JAC' are divisions, genetically identical and of same value. If I sell a pot plant Paphiopedilum Maudiae vinicolor that look more or less like JAC as divisions of the original 'JAC', historical plant...

That's what the people call helenae delicatum, from Tuyen Quang. The local name is the same as what they use for coccineum (hai tim). They can be more or less pinkish. wild flower on a wild plant... The plants cannot be told apart from normal helenae ( and I think it is just a local color...

Just a fantasy, a non-Paphiopedilum... [/URL][/IMG] I reasked the owner(and now seller :D) and this is the form from Sabah with dark markings. The flower is quite massive, and nothing close to a cornu cervi. Fewer flowers per stem, the plant has overall a bit narrower leaves at the base, and...

I have been using orchiata for a while, and nowadays, after having tried some mixes with pumice, and the like, I settled for pure orchiata, in various grades. I add some extra lime for some paphs, nutricote eventually for the heavy feeders, and let's go. Here is a new hangianum, potted end of...
