Hans Hermans just passed away in Thailand. He was better known on this board as cliokchi.
He was responsible for the introduction of many species in cultivations. Some of those were:
Paphiopedilum bougainvilleanum var. Saskianum - Saskia, his former Japanese dutch girlfriend.
Paphiopedilum hangianum - after Mrs. Hang, an entertainer girl from Saigon that he liked.
Paphiopedilum tranlienianum - after Mrs. Tran Ngoc Lien, a small girl and translator that became rich thanks to his generosity.
