Phrag. lindenii

[Drorchid]

You don't see this one to often: Phrag lindenii aka the Pouchless slipper. Besides it having 3 petals it also has 3 pollinia, of which one always touches the stigma and thus self pollinates.

lovelly... one of my favorite Phragmies (believe it or not!) maybe because it is the only one of the section Phragmipedium that grows in Venezuela (and which I had the chance once ago to see in the wild)

very beautiful, this is one I am looking for here in Brazil and not think to buy

These are amazing. Interesting about the pollinia -- I don't think mine self-polinated. At least, no seed pod formed.

My son is fascinated by this species (as he is by all unusual or weird plants) and he has been begging me to get one...he just loves the idea of a slipper orchid without a slipper. I told him I'd get one when I finally found a good price....Take care, Eric

Gorgeous! I really like that specie too... Nice colors!

Hey! That sounds like me! I don't have one yet either, but, if Ecuagenera gets around to importing Phrags, I'll pick one up. I should have when I had the chance before, but I'll try again. They have it listed at $20 U.S. Kyle might be able to give more info on this, though.
