Very nice flower but the more I see of it, the more I think its a variety or form of malipoense. If its not then there are a lot of people who need to rethink the combining of curtisii and superbiens.

:sob: Next time I go to Canada, if there's an orchid show I am so gonna!

 

[SlipperFan]

So if it's legal in Canada, could a Canadian vendor bring them to a show in the US?

Very nice, large flower! I am curious to compare with mine when open!! Jean

So if it's legal in Canada, could a Canadian vendor bring them to a show in the US?

my understanding is no. the native country must issue export certificates, the country where the plant is to end up (i.e. in the u.s.) needs to issue import certs. if that hasn't happened, then no.
this could be way off...

Very cool! When did it start spiking?

My malipoense is spiking now (the first time starting in winter), and the spike is growing must faster than the summer spikes it usually produces. Maybe this time I'll get a completely opening flower?!?

 

[Sangii]

Very cool! When did it start spiking?

I first spotted the spike some 8 or 9 months ago.....veryyyyyyyyyy long wait !

 

[NYEric]

Nope, still illegal! 8 months!? I would have thought it stalled or blasted, now I have to check some of my plants!
