    Brown Spots on Paph. Roth leaves! Please help!

    Agree with repotting in sterilized new medium. I would also soak the whole plant, bare root, in Physan solution. If you can get the “dragon’s blood” (make sure it’s the real stuff; I like the one with the blue/white label), it works wonders dabbed onto the visible infection and even droppered...

    Concolor album

    Beautiful. I’m surprised to see such a large pot for such a small plant. What is that about?

    Paphiopedilum “Ho Chi Minh”

    I find hybrids distasteful. And then here’s one with stunning leaves that blooms for me and… then I become a hypocrite. SlipperTalkers identified this plant for me as Ho Chi Minh a few years ago. I think it’s a funny story; I made annual visits to the general city nursery where this plant sat...

    Disa uniflora, one year from flask

    Thank you very much! The 0496 photo is the final photo in the old pot, which had degraded. I let it dry out somewhat in advance of repotting.

    Disa uniflora, one year from flask

    These Disa uniflora are from Afrodisia. I gave a flask to my Aunt as an early birthday gift one year ago; we had been dreaming of Disa for decades. She potted them carefully in Aircone pot, in high-quality sphagnum with a thick underlayering of perlite. She had them only a few weeks before she...

    Might a moss-hungry man purchase some from you?

    Paph charlesworthii

    It’s very nice! I keep blasting these. Sigh.

    How would you rate this Paph. rothschildianum?

    It’s blooming despite (or because of) extreme stress. Something has caused that stress; can you figure out what it is? Meanwhile, I have to recommend First Rays potions: the KelPak, the probiotic. They might get it galloping. As always, photos showing only the flower and not the whole plant...

    Trisetella

    Interesting answer, thank you; it absolutely does not, at all, resemble and sphagnum I’ve ever seen growing. I want some!

    Your wild/type haynaldianum is magical.

    Blooming Paph Magic Rainbow and Paph appletonianum

    I had the same question because “Magic Rainbow” looks so much like the species.

    Paphiopedilum lowii

    Is it because the petals are held out so very horizontally?

    Vietnamense

    It’s striking. I’ve killed a couple of these. You make me want to try again.
