I originally stepped into my slipper interest almost ten years ago. Because of certain reasons I dropped off in the middle and had regained the interest in 2011. And I've been here in this forum ever since. I have learnt a lot from experienced members over here. And I still have to learn forever. Thanks Heather for accepting me as the member 4 years ago :rollhappy:

I used to cultivate slipper orchids indoor using artificial illumination. I had a few success to bloom some of them. But most of them grew slowly. Perhaps there were insufficient light bulbs installed.

I yearned to have my own greenhouse for a very long time. This year I came across with an opportunity that I can rent a small area in a large greenhouse. Here are the species and hybrids I currently have.

Nothing humble about that list! Some very nice species on that list that are not easy to acquire in the US.

Yea I shouldn't say that word. I must agree I got rare species here. But to me I am quite envy about those awesome sigmato species grown by members over here.

Those species are hard to grow here because the temperature is simply too high.

Thats an amazing collection of species! There aren't many you don't have, it seems. I think we can learn a lot from you, so it is good you are on this forum!

Sweet. Glad to have you on the forum :).
I am quite happy when I can find one specimen. Here's the growth shot :D

Thank you! My goal is to collect as many species and its varieties and forms as I can. Obviously this is a difficult task. Some varieties and albinos are very hard to find. Even if there are, they would be very expensive.

That small area must be pretty big.
About 350 square feet.

Great collection! :clap:
Thank you!:clap:

Good list! I like how you have pretty much all the multiflorals covered!
I think I would have covered all the multiflorals if I could have a chance to own ooii as well. :(

I think some of you maybe interested

Some growth shots of my Paph. intaniae. I believe the photos might help for those who are interested in this rare and weird looking species.

Thank you all! I hope for the best that I can succeed in growing all of those.

Great photos. However there is way to much room...not enough plants!

Yes you are right! I am so excited. But I am short of funds now. I have to expand my collection slowly. Otherwise I would have to rob somebody. :clap::clap::clap:
