[Ross]

Just got an AQ on this cross. Two plants were awarded AM's, one aureum and one coloratum. This is a cell phone picture from one of the judges. I will try to post pictures when I get them back this weekend.

Yepee!! Congratulations Ross! Would love to have one of the aureum

 

[NYEric]

Congrats. When you get a chance I'd like to see the second and third from the right, thanx.

Second from the right is Paph barbigerum fma. aureum 'Deerwood Triple Play' AM/AOS. It is a first bloom seedling with three flowers. The shading makes the pouches look dark, but they are actually green/yellow.

 

[NYEric]

No, no, you didn't understand, I'd like to "see" them! :evil: send them to me for a closer look!

[Brian Monk]

Congrats Ross! An AQ is about the best honor a breeder cn get, and you certainly deserve it.

 

[Ernie]

Awesome, Ross!!! A great compliment for any hybridizer! From the fish net, looks like they went on a trip to Chicago? They put up netting around the educational center at the Chi Botanic Garden to keep birds from craching into the glass.

Congrats!!! Sorry I missed it.

 

[SlipperFan]

Congrats, Ross! That's great. And I agree -- I'd love to see close-ups.

Two of my seedlings are in spike. :clap:

:drool::drool: Congrats!!:clap::clap: I saw them! They were as cute as can be! They were all set up, the photographer was almost ready, and then it came as no surprise when I saw who's name was on the paperwork!

Thanks for all the nice comments. I was going to take my own photos before I packed them, but I was running out of time on Thursday. I needed to get them down to south Minneapolis by 7:30 PM so they could fly out the next day. Many thanks to Karen M., who brought them to Chicago for me.
