couple things

[Pete]

Here a few things from the greenhouse now...
Paphiopedilum tonsum var. curtisifolium one of my favorite species. definitely underrated.

Paphiopedilum hennisianum var. album

a nice Paphiopedilum niveum

and a very cool view of a spectacular 5 flowered Paphiopedilum sanderianum

 

[The Mutant]

Love the tonsum, but then I'm a bit of a tonsum fan but I've never seen a curtisifolium before but the spotted petals are seriously cool.

The last picture... all I can say is: "Aaaaaaaaaaaaargh!"

 

[Susie11]

Nice.

 

[TDT]

I love the Paph tonsum too! This variety is new to me - onto the wish list!

 

[SlipperKing]

Hey Pete,its been a long time. Hope all is well

 

[Ozpaph]

curtisifolium is wonderful!
Please show the sandie front on - it deserves to show its 'locks'.

 

[Paphluvr]

I think the photo of niveum is very nice. Isn't this a form that was once sold as the species Paph. ang thong? Most niveums I'm familiar with are almost pure white with very little spotting.

 

[Dido]

The niveum is really great like it

 

[NYEric]

Great photos. That tonsum is a new one for me as well. Thanks for sharing.

 

[Spaph]

What a tonsum you have! Great to see a post again, really enjoy your pictures and updates!

 

[Erythrone]

What a tonsum you have!

I agree

 

[eggshells]

Tonsum and sandy for me. Welcome back Pete

 

[Trithor]

some fantastic plants you have there. Love them all, especially the tonsum

 

[emydura]

Yes, the tonsum is wonderful and great phot of the sandi. 5 flowers is good going. Are we going to see a front on photo as well?

 

[Rick]

That's a real spotty tonsum. Is that the varietal difference?

Very cool stuff Pete!

How are your hangianum from Holger doing?

 

[SlipperFan]

I would not have guessed that is a pure niveum...

Love the tonsum.

 

[abax]

Lovely blooms one and all.

 

[Pete]

thanks for all the nice comments everyone.
Rick-my biggest hangis are NBS-BS easy. once they get passed the 2" pot phase they grow a bit quicker.

ill try to find a decent front view shot of the sanderianum for you guys, but its the same one i have posted before in recent years. best ive got out of it was 71cm petal length. it does 5 flowers 3 bloomings in a row tho so it must be happy!

 

[GuRu]

All are lovely flowers, but in opposite to most of the contributers of this thread I like the hennisianum album best.

 

[Heather]

Love the first one, and the overhead view of sanderianum is very cool!
