The second edition of my Phragmipedium book was published today with 560 pages and nearly 2000 pictures Here some pages as typical examples.

What does your contribution have to do with the book. It is really pointless to continue discussing something that happened 8 years ago and has nothing to do with this thread.

The plant which Bertold means was Phragmipedium kovachii 'Maria' which get a GM 2012. You can see it in OrchidWizz. There you find a picture of. It has only one shoe, but this has a rim in front. On the other side this plant has nothing to do with my book here.

It is hardly possible to find such gold medal plants, because in recent years the DOG German Orchid Society has only very rarely awarded gold medals for species of the genus Paphiopedilum. I can only remember a Paph. hangianum, a jackii and a micranthum. Of course, none of them had a double...

The book has become so thick because I present the individual species with all their varieties and forms in their great variability with many pictures. In previous publications, mostly only a very small number of pictures per species was shown. In addition, the location pictures were usually...

The taxonomy is very clear. We have a species Paph. tonsum with a coloration which could be go a Little bit more greenish or brownish with all graduations between. Then we have the officiall described forma alboviride and for me also clear the var. braemii with its smaller plant and flower...

I agree with you Rob, it a pearcei. Here a typical caricinum

Nowerdays the tendency is going Always more and more to the species-level for Paph. richardianum. The Problem inthe beginning were the Pictures of the typeplant which showed us a floppy form of lowii. The other Problem was that there are not so many plants of richardianum are in culture. But the...

No schoseri alba, albescens or so was described. I have never seen a plant or a Picture of. Perhaps we will find a plant in the future with greenish wehite Flowers.

It was described in Phytotaxa Vol 423, No 4: 259 – 265; 11 November 2019, an online-Journal. But you could write to me Rich, then I could mail a copy.

Thanks for sharing!!!

It is a different species you can see it in my book, you can see it in the book from Cribb and also in Braem's book. Also in the Kew-list. But some Judges know all better

The correct Name is Paphiopedilum jackii f. virescens (O.Gruss & Roeth) Perner ex O.Gruss & N.H.Tuan, Published in OrchideenJournal 25(3): 126 (2018).

You can get it also from the library of the German Orchid Society!

Dear Chaunie, meanwhile also 2 other books About the genus were published, also when they don't include so many Pictures. Please wait another orchidfriend will publish soon another book about the genus with many habitatpictures. I am working just this time for a book about Paphiopedilum, also...

Would be interesting. Perhaps in the future!!

For persons, who did not Need all the Pictures, my Editor produced my smaller book About the genus some monthes ago. Around 120 pages with nearly 300 Pictures. Perhaps it would be interesting to produce a english Version of my first book, ut it is difficult to find an Editor for. Olaf...

Phrag. besseae forma flava is an accepted classification. It is not known how many besseae flava were found in the past. It was told only one plant. but I don't trust it. When you are interested in the different local races, then look to my book About the genus. There I showed a lot of Pictures...
