Do you know the dimensions of the bloom when awarded?

Regards and thanks, Mick

Unfortunately, no.

I am sorry for that.
We were not so good in filing information so most of information was lost.
But the TPC has just been trying to improve it recently.
 
Hakone, I don't know why you post pictures from a friend in Kunming, or whatever, all your photos so far came from only one nursery. The same thing you should remember about Guido, he was one of the best friends of that plant's owner (and actually saved his life once but I ll never say how).

By the way, that plant on that photo has a very dirty story behind, I'll not expand in public, but it is clearly 'stolen goods' legally. Let's say someone bought it (another best friend), paid in full (not me, I bought mine from Yen directly), it disappeared from his nursery, thanks to one of his workers, and reappeared later in Germany at his best friend place. Orchids are one thing, I can understand that there are some fanatic collectors, I am one of them, but there are ethic limits. Best friends or gratefulness are things not to be tampered with.

I respect that German nurseryman for what he is, one of the best collectors of orchids, and a really good grower, he can look very kind too, and be at some point, BUT sometimes he breaks the limits to get more plants. Never stole from your 30 years old friends, no matter what is the matter, and second, when your friend, sponsor, and support dies (a few months ago in Thailand), don't try to go instant to his nursery to buy quickly plants and make good deals. That's basic politeness rules. I will not speak anymore about that subject here.

Its seems that things haven't changed in the last few hundred years of collecting plants. There will always be scandal, mystery, corruption and greed.

Regards, Mick

None of the plants shown on the first page of the link are the same type as your original photo. I'm not knowledgable on the subject to make speeches but I think your friend should be discreet if they're sending you photos of plants of questionable origin or possesion. Otherwise, you should be more careful about sharing these interesting photos.

What is a clone of paphiopedilum concolor album in : Genus Paphiopedilum , Albino Forms , Olaf Gruss , page 52 .
 
Interesting comparison of concolor plant morphology in the link.... Shows what variation exists in natural populations... :)

I have invited the author, piyasann, to attend this topic.
And also Surgery who took previous photos of 'Yen'

Gunny posted this pic of "Yen" some time ago. It does look like the clone that Hakone posted.

That's the story about the pictured plants I was talking about... :p Not three clumps, but two is fair enough.
