I had a trip to Aachen yesterday as a regular visitor of the Aachen Orchid Show, and to buy tons of 'Printen' (a cookies specialty of the Town).

En résumé there were lots of class plants, with a majority of paphs (Imo), and a very large vendors section (unfortunately Fr. Glanz was not there any more :eek:)

Here some impressions:

A new cross with a sympethatic name 'Euregio Maas-Rhein' for European region of the rivers Maas (in Belgium-Netherlands) and Rhein (coming from Switzerland, here esp. Germany-Netherlands)


Lots of slippers:


gratrixianum:


a nice callosum:


a Vinicolor:


A most impressive part, note the lowii on the left and the tranlienianum alboviride clump to the right side (unfort. the close-up is blurry):

Voila! I hope you liked :) !!! Jean
 
Nice! the bundtii= bullenianum and the bullenianum= controversal ceveranum IMHO.

Really nice clump of venutsum!
 
Nice pictures Jean, I thought about going to the show but because of work and I allready have two days off planned next week I decided to stay at home. However my parents and my brother went there yesterday and they picked up a nice plant for me which I'll post pictures of as soon as it blooms.

Only thing I'm going to reveal right now is that it has two buds. :D
 
Dear Jean,
the plant shown under the name of the never described x bundtii is a celebesense and very different to the plants shown at first as x bundtii.

Best greetings

Olaf
 
Thanks all for your comments; the Effort was done by the Aachener Orchideen-Freunde club :):)!

Thanks Olaf for your comment about bundtii!! Here a pic of a bloom that the same nursery showed as celebensis!!! Jean
