Fox Valley's New Location

[W. Beetus]

Today I went out and visited Tom at his new location at the greenhouse in his back yard. I made a panoramic picture from the front door, so you all can get an idea of how much smaller it is versus his old location at Hausermanns'.

And a few other things:

P. Fanaticum

P. Jade Dragon

A Group of P. venustums

P. Bailey Kalina

P. lowii album

P. besseae 'Fox Valley' FCC/AOS

P. Fox Valley Fireball (don't remember which clone at the moment)

I'd like to further comment that the lowii album is incredible! The yellow is so much more YELLOW in this photo as compared to the one on this page: http://http://www.slippertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=23733&page=2 Is that because of lighting/different cameras; or, has the flower actually deepened it's colour? I'm LOVING the deeper yellow colour!!!!!!!! I hope that it's true.

Thanks Nick,

It was a great visit! Although we're now an internet-only slipper orchid vendor and not open to the public because of residential restrictions, special customers like Nick will always be welcome to visit and share a cup of home-brewed Starbuck's coffee. I think the color of that lowii fma album appearing more yellow as it ages is probably due to lower lighting conditions during Nick's visit. Hope it's still in bloom for the Madison show in two weeks:wink:


Thanks!

Funny, it reminds me of that narrow space at Hauserman's, just more lush!
Thanks for the tour.

Lovely CLEAN greenhouse. I think I spy a white complex
Paph. on the left side of the gh that I'd love to have!
Damn winter weather *grumble grumble*

That's Paph. White Queen 'Kathleen' HCC/AOS; a division of Bill Rogerson's plant that was awarded in Chicago in December, 1999. Blooms faithfully every year.

Thanks,
