I haven't posted any pictures in quite a while and figured I might as well since I have some things blooming right now: First is a plant I got from Ernie when he was at the Oregon Orchid Soceity meeting giving a presentation. It is Paph. Wellesleyanum forma album X Paph In-Charm White...

Here is my Paph fowliei that I got from Matt Gore some time ago. It has now bloomed. Here are shots of the front and the back of the bloom: Enjoy Craig

Here is my Paph appletonianum. It appears to be an albine flower with a brown inflorescence. It also has very small darker spots on the petals. You can see them if you look at the 'actual' size of he pictures below. Olaf may be able to clarify if this is fma album or just appletonianum, but...

I got all 5 of the roths that Krull-Smith has listed on their back on the back of the most current Orchids magazine. Frank also mentioned them in a thread under vendor sales. I ordered and I received some of the best looking roths I have seen. Here's a picture of all 5 of them. Advertised as...

This has been a long time coming! It seems to have been in bud for the last 6 months or so. The infloresence is probably 2 ft long (I have not measured it). Anyway, here is the picture, I hope you like it. (By the way this photo was shot with my partner's new Nikon D40 camera...

I had to have it... I can't wait till it gets here... http://www.streetmorrisart.com/autumndryads.html :clap::D:clap::D:clap::D:clap::D:clap: Craig

I finally got a picture of my Paph henryanum! UGH! It's was so hard for me to get. I really like it. It appears to be a 2nd blooming, but is the first for me. I'm very happy with it, although there is a small color break on the pouch. Craig

This is the 2nd blooming of this divison for me. This time the flower is blooming way out of season after setting a bud that just sat for several months. The flower is bigger than last time, but it has not faded like the last one did. Also the petals are not as even. Oh well, a blooming...

This is Paph (Mukali x curtisii) Maudiae x Maudiae Napa Valley AM/AOS x sib.....yeah right. It's the first Paph I bought when I was getting back into growing orchids. This is it's 3rd blooming. I was told by a judge a few months ago that they would have nominated it had I entered it, but I...

My Paph villosum. It was NOT pulled for judging at the November judging.....dammit. I really like it. I also like the dorsal and how it is not quite like other villosum. The color is pretty correct, which I also like. Craig

My Paph liemianum. It was pulled for judging at our monthly judging in November, but it was not scored. It's a first bloom seedling. I really like it. Craig

Well, I did it. I bought a flask from Glen and they were shipped from Fritz. Some of my friends wanted to go in on a flask so we did. I'm going to give 1 or 2 of mine away and then keep the rest. I sure hope I can keep from killing them!! Here's some photos: The flask The...

Paph Erika Potent is (hookerae x urbanianum). I got both of these plants from Ernie at EnLightened Orchids earlier this year. They were both in very low bud and are now blooming. The first one opened about 2 1/2 weeks ago and there is a small color break on the right petal. The 2nd one...

This is Paph Lefty Kei which is (William Ambler X sanderianum) The pictures aren't that good, but the flower is really nice. The other one of these I have seen in bloom had much broader 'shoulders' and the petals were darker. Hopefully the petals will continue to grow as well. The 2nd...

Well, I decided to try to get a shot of my Paph S. Gratrix that won Best First Bloom Seedling at the Oregon Orchid Society Show this past weekend. This seems to be the best picture I can get. I have another S. Gratrix that is just beginning to open, so I'll try to post a picture of it when it...

I just got back from the Oregon Orchid Society Show and Sale held in Portland OR this weekend. The show was very nice. 6 AOS awards were given. Here are some pics of the event, starting with a shot of the OOS display. (I am not a member of the OOS, but of the Northwest Orchid Society in...

It seems that I have always had such a hard time finding quality potting material, no matter where I've lived. In some ways I guess I still do. However, I have discovered a place to get potting materials EXACTLY how I want them. The place is called Repotme.com and I have gotten...

Here's a close up of the tonsum in my display as well as a picture of the whole plant. I got it from Piping Rock Orchids a couple of months ago and it is a very small plant. This is it's first blooming on a single growth. It was in low bud when I got it and the flower is very nice. Too bad...

Here's a pic of my Paph Duguesclin and a picture of how I display my blooming plants in my house. The window is just a greenhouse window in my kitchen which looks out to my backyard. I hope the photos are OK. Craig

Here's a pic of my Paph vietnamense. I got it about a week ago in bud. The bud has already changed in that the pouch is already turning pink. When I got it the pouch part was white. I'll try to post more pics as the bud (hopefully) develops and finally blooms. Craig
