2007 TPS Taipei Paph show

[Chien]

This weekend, a paph show is held in Taipei by TPS. It's sad that I can not attend there, so I do not take photos. But, my friend do, and they shared their photos with me on a plants forum. I think maybe some people here will wnat to see those paphs.
Here is the link, enjoy it.

Hi Chien,

Thank you for the link and your friends for lots of very nice photos. My heart laughs when I see so many well cultivated and nice flowering Paphs. I like particularly the green/white album forms of many species.
It's great to see nearly 'live' what happens on the other side of the earth.

Best regards from Germany, GuRu

Thanks for the link. I thought the different sizes and styles of pots were as interesting as the plants.

Chien, I too am sorry you couldn't go to the show. Thanks to both you and your friend for the photos. There are a few that really stuck out in my mind. The first one is the Wossiner Bellarmi. That one is very nice. I also liked the leucochilum alba x an-thong alba. Naturally, I LOVED the photos of the hangianum as we can't get these here.

Thanks again !!!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

What a thrill it must have been to see all this beauty. I'm thrilled just to see these pictures. Thanks to your friend also for sharing these with us.

I am completely snow bound this morning. What a nice show to add color to my day. All that white gets a bit boring.

Superb all of them... it looks like they were just sitting there waiting for someone (...me...) to pick them up... or given as a gift for the viewers as they lead themselves out of the exibition... Hahahaha... I wish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TPS and TOGA, Taiwan Orchid Grower Association and Taiwan Paphiopedilum Society hold several paph shows every year, thanks to their efforts so that we can see so many beautiful flowers from different growers on one time.

In different season, we can see different type of paphs on the show. On this show, most are Complex type. In my own openion, the quality of complex breeding still need a lot of effort.

Maybe you are interested in the biggest orchid show in Taiwan, that is held by TOGA, here are some information about that.
