Starting the new year with a goofy platyphyllum 'Super Clone' × self. If you followed my thread last year you may remember the batch of plants tagged as Hilo Black Eagle that turned out to be Hilo Bald Eagle. I have a second grex (or do I? The tags say so) of Hilo Black Eagle spiking this...

Copied from my Paph Season thread, it deserves its own spotlight: I sent it up to judging today and 30 years after it sparked my passion for orchids I have it awarded in my name. I received an 82 point AM, the original award was 80. I was hoping for 84-86 points which would make that push to...

I have some K Lite sitting around that I have no use for now that I'm mixing my own nutrients. Two are sealed, one is open but barely used, still has 1lb 13oz in it. $65 shipped in the USA.

I got stuck with this and a few other Pleurothallid scraps at a society meeting last year and figured they wouldn't put up with my greenhouse for long but they all have done surprisingly well. This is the first to bloom and I don't have the foggiest idea of what it is lol

I just saw on facebook that he passed this morning, another Paph legend gone.

I have some surplus pollen available. No charge, I'd just like the chance to buy in on flasks at lab cost if you make something that interests me. Trades are welcome but not required. Four pollinia of haynaldianum 'Karen Resh' AM/AOS Six pollinia of Saint Swithin 'Candor Excalibur' FCC/AOS...

I have 20 empties and no use for them, if you're a home flasker and want them they are all yours for the cost of shipping.

These plants hate life here, I've had them four years and it has been nothing but struggle and setback. If you have a knack for parishii/dianthum and want to try your hand at rehabbing them they are yours for the cost of shipping. They will ship bareroot (if they have roots) to minimize the...

I'm tired of the lab I'm currently using killing everything I send in, who is trustworthy with Paphs in the US?

Off to an early start this year, adding lights to the greenhouse seems to have worked wonders. Normally a March bloomer, Wössner Black Wings 'Bitis Botanical' AM/AOS is almost fully open. This was my first awarded plant, unfortunately the first bud blasted, I lost quite a few buds when I had to...

If like to clear out a bit of bench space. All flower pics are previous blooms on the plants for sale. Shipping in the USA, heat packs and insulated boxes are available if needed. Paph Predacious - $40 Currently in bloom. I can cut the spike to save on shipping or ship in bloom, I'll pack the...

I have a group of Micropetalum Phrag hybrids that have struggled with the heat for a few years now and I'm tired of them taking up greenhouse space. Free to a good home, just shoot me $15 for shipping (USA only) and be ready to pot them up as they will be bareroot.

I received an 80 point AM on a first bloom tigrinum today, named 'Peanut' for my childhood cat.

We made the three hour trek to the Triad Orchid Society show today and walked away with two awards. Paph Wössner Black Wings 'Gabby' is my second AM to WBW, and Nottara Lucy's Sassafrass 'Tightie Whitie' is my first FCC. Both plants are named for beloved pet snakes that have passed.

Will ship within the USA, heat packs available if needed. Shipping cost will be added based on actual USPS Priority rate. Payment accepted by Paypal, Venmo, or Cashapp. Paph Yang Ji Apple (philippinense var. roebelenii × anitum) BS $40 each (Plants A, B, C) A, B pending sale NBS $30 (Plant D)...

My first bloom roths are starting to open and I'm starting to consider what is worth keeping and what isn't. This one has two major flaws in my eyes, narrow sepals and droopy petals. Are either likely to improve enough to make it worth several more years of taking up bench space or would it be...

I don't grow many philippinense crosses but this one earns it's bench space. If I can get 5+ flowers on it in the future I'll take it to judging.

I'm still learning the finer points of staking and grooming a plant for judging after so many years of just letting them do what they want. I'm trying to figure out why so many of my spikes develop a sharp kink as they grow, it cost me points on my awarded WBW and I would really like to figure...

I know that excess kelp can lead to deformities, but are there any benefits or drawbacks to more frequent use of Inocucor or similar products? Setting aside cost as a factor, is there any particular reason why once monthly is the recommended application? Intuitively it seems to me that there...

Unpacking a box from Orchid Inn might be better than presents from Santa. I had to take advantage of the Paph Forum discount and decided to give my roths collection a boost. As always the plants are beautifully grown and way bigger than I expected.
