That pouch on the Vipani is stunning!

 

[Heather]

I'm voting for Druid Spring this time, sweet looking hybrid!

 

[ohio-guy]

really nice!

 

[Candace]

I'd love a small piece of that Vipani Dot, if you ever want to sell or trade a division. It's my favorite! My Yellow Tiger is in spike too.

 

[Roy]

I vote for the Vipani. What a special site it is. I WANT ONE.:drool:

 

[NYEric]

Wow great photos, who did you get the plants from?

 

[Paul]

those primaries are truly fantastic, wooow!!!:drool::drool::drool::clap:

 

[Ross]

all very nice, as usual!:clap: I particularly like the stunning white pouch on the Druid Spring. The Vipanii has very good form.

Hello Dot,

But the best of all are your excellent photos - congrats!!

Excellent pictures!!!
The name for the cross between stonei X praestans is not correct. It was necessary to change the name because Paph. Yellow Tiger was in truth platyphyllum with praestans (glanduliferum).
So this cross has just now no official name when I remember correctly.

Best greetings

Thanks Olaf. I actually have that noted in my records. But that's what is on the tag, so I felt I should keep it so for now. The question for me, then, is it really Yellow Tiger (platyphyllum x praestans) or is it stonei x praestans? With that tag, it could be either. From the photo, do you have an opinion, Olaf?

 

[SlipperFan]

Where purchased?

Yellow Tiger is from Taylor Orchids.
Druid Spring is from Porter's Orchids (I think from Ratcliffe ultimately).
Vipani is from J & K Orchids.

Thanks, everyone. I love all three!

Candace -- the plant isn't big enough to divide, but I'll try to remember.

 

[Candace]

Thanks, Dot!

Yes, that Paph Druid Spring is a keeper!
