    I received three different ones from Hillsview Garden. Each one bloomed within 3-4 months. They were all great. Just ordered another one. I did place some outside during the day to get cooler temps and in the garage at night (to keep them from freezing). Waiting to see if they bloom.

    besseae & rosalie dixler

    besseae 'ester nies'. Not as full as last time it bloomed but it grows like a weed, blooms about every 6 months. Wonder how it does in the great white north? Rosalie Dixler

    Paph wardii

    I bought a flask of wardii from Sam at the beginning of the year: I think it's variety 'warp speed'. Most of them have already bloomed. Can't wait to see what they look like on larger plants. The large one on the left looks like it's about to bloom again.

    Kiwi bark is made from the New Zealand pinus radiata tree. Orchiata is made from the New Zealand pinus radiata tree. I've used both (only Kiwi now since I cannot get Orchiata anymore). Orchiata grades the bark more uniformly. I just sift my Kiwi to get the same result. A bag of #2 fine gives me...
