New member, long time grower

[Gcroz]

Hi everyone. My first orchid plant was a Paph. of unknown name that I received at age 9. It lived with me for many years, along with the rest of my collection, until I placed it under my mothers "tender loving care" during college. Now, having rebuilt a large Cattleya collection of species plants, I've turned my attention back to Paphs. In particular, parvi paphs.

I'm still learning about these wonderful plants and have truly enjoyed reading the various books about them. I'm now a professional grower, having retired from the law, specializing in Cats, oncidium intergenerics, and parvi paph. hybrids. If anyone else is a fanatic about parvis, please drop me a line!

Cgroz - WELCOME! You've come to the right place! There are many of us that would like to be more successful with the parvis!

You'll find a few of those around here, though we can always use another to offset my anti-parvi nature...:wink:

Welcome, by the way!

Ooh ooh ooh! I'm also a Parvi fan. Welcome from NYC! Where are you located and are you going to be selling and/or trading parvis?

 

[Candace]

Welcome and parvis are my weakness too...

You can count me in as a parvi lover also. Welcome to the forum. It's a great place to make new friends that have your same interest.

Yep, I've got all the legal Parvi species and all the legal Parvi x Parvi primary hybrids (until I killed my Armeni White, that is).

 

[Candace]

Aw, Zach I've got a really cheap Armeni White to sell you:evil::rollhappy:

Welcome from Luxembourg; catts (and alliance, I am still using old terminology: ex Laelia and not yet Sophronitis!??) and Paphs do represent the larger part of my collection. Jean
