was browsing E-bay like I really shouldn't and I came across a couple of Paphs I had not heard much about......just wondered if anyone had any experience with either

Well, sukhakulii is supposedly very easy. One that has always tempted me too but I haven't grown any of these, myself.

I have some Sukhakulii seedlings that bought in a compot.....I just planted them up individually the other day...... LOL I think the name just intrigued me intially thats why I looked at the sukhakulii cross on e-bay

The Duguesclins are nice. A mottled leaf, Barbata hybrid. If this is from the same source as the others that are floating around recently, at least one of its siblings has been awarded.

This plant is very easy to grow but I don't think the one pictured on Ebay is bullenianum v amabile. Ask the seller where he got it.

I had one of these yrs ago. I even got a HCC on it but it was so slow growing. This looks like a really good deal, already in bud!

My Duguesclin is currently blooming and I like it a lot -- nice big flower!

I saw a duguesclin at a show and it was a real eye catcher. Very tall stem and relatively large flowers.

You should look up the thread on "Barbata culture" that Paphioboy started and ran a week or so ago.

see I am such a newbie that I was not sure if I had any Barbata type seedlings....if that is the correct way to phrase it LOL
