    paphiopedilum tigrinum

    Thanks Thanks. Yeah, you are right. But I think they are more tolerable and adapted to water-retaining media with some perlite.

    paphiopedilum tigrinum

    Thanks. To the contrary, the soil mix stimulates root growth based on my 2,5 years experience. I got this recipe from some Canadian Chinese YouTuber. She bought the paphi and phrag with such pot mixture from some very experienced nursery owners and then she started to change all her paphi&phrags...

    paphiopedilum tigrinum

    Hi Martin, I simply use the soil for houseplants from a garden center (intratuin in the Netherlands). I think the main ingredients are peat and peat moss for the soil based on the package. Then I simply mix it evenly with perlite (1: 2 perlite and soil). The bottom of the pot is lime stone...

    paphiopedilum tigrinum

    I have not logged in this forum for almost 1 year, but a prank successfully initiated by a friend in real life made me log in here again. This time I would like to share my paphiopedilum tigrinum. It bloomed 2 or 3 weeks ago. I like the shape and color of the flower when it just opened it’s bud...

    Paphiopedilum Sanderianum

    I know who the person is now. Its an English colleague who tried to troll me all the time. I should have realized it’s him when he mentioned it’s a novelty Phalaenopsis since it’s his only knowledge about orchid from me. No one here could confuse a paphi as a novelty phal. My fault to be so...

    Paphiopedilum Sanderianum

    I have no problem if someone told me it’s not a sanderianum, and even if it’s not it does not matter much for me. It’s still a nice plant that gives me flowers. I just think it’s a weird that people claim I have bad eyesight on a online forum as I never pretended that I know what it is exactly.

    A good intention could also sound a bit arrogant:) Bayesian inference means that how to assess the accuracy of informanten when uncertainties is present through subjective probabilities and conditional probabilities. I never said that the certificate proves is a sanderinum, the certificate only...

    Paphiopedilum Sanderianum

    Thanks for your comment, but since many people here have also grown sanderianum and confirmed it’s indeed one, my confidence level is not too low it’s a sanderianum. From a Bayesian perspective I’m not worried so much given the information that the final pedal is 50cm. I’m 100% sure the orchid...

    Thanks GuRu. Haha actually I live in the Netherlands, but honestly most of orchids were purchased from Germany. I think its pretty lucky to have Germany as a neighboring country as a plant hobbist:)

    Paphiopedilum Sanderianum

    Thanks a lot Leslie for the very kind professional verificaiton. I still have another flowered sanderianum 101 (much larger with more fans) which has not given me flower yet, and i got it from Popow in Germany. A big investment (350 Euro) I got it 2 months ago, because I thought the one which...

    Paphiopedilum Sanderianum

    This is my first post. As a orchid collector owning more than 60 orchids, I have never been so cheerful with an orchid plant like this. The flower it gave is purely a surprise. I bought this plant from Taiwan (republic of China) when the Taiwanese company attended an orchid show in Germany...
