I think Bob's wife's name is Donna.

Lots in flower - very nice. I too love the Restrepias. Is that L. purpurata variety werkhauseri? Mine is in flower now.

Yes, it is L. purpurata werkhauseri. Restrepias are some of my favorite Plerothallids. What's nice is that they seem to be easier to grow than many other miniatures and they remind me of tiny elves with hats on.

Ross, what is that first paph hybrid? I love it!

Thanks for all the nice comments!

The first Paph is Paph Irish Moss 'Elizabeth' AM/AOS, grown by a good friend, Rick Brink. He gave me a small division a few years ago. This blooming is not as deeply colored as the award photo.

The first Restrepia is Restrepia cuprea.
