Thanks for all nice comments. on the compact plant size: It was grown under higher intensity grow LED with a lot of blue in it. I noticed all my plants were growing very compact indeed, but recently I lowered light intensity. Faster growers already show increase in leave size and less curved...

Paph sanderianum, one of the few non-albino species in my small collection that I belief fully deserves his space... with the extreme heat we had in Belgium, very dry air because of in-house culture, I was really affraid the bud would abort. Instead it progressed from first visible bud to open...

Hey Mario, Rudolf, here is my two cents: The registrar & adress according OrchidWiz is R. W. Cryder, Top Place, Salinas. California. Looking up that adress in google maps shows it is 15 miles away from the top of Mount Toro and very likely even visible from that home adress. I belief it is safe...

Very well done... and I really appreciate the follow up & extended period of reporting. Its great to witness progress over many years. Thank you !

sure, I got it... I still like my explanation better :) this forum florishes on people like you (and many others) who invest time to explain and document voluntary. I thought it to be good to speak up from time to time to let you all know I appreciate this a lot. Comparing to other social media...

Hi Rudolf, thank you very much for your never ending efforts in gathering and sharing scientific based replies to everyone's questions! Internet defines "guru" as "an influential teacher or popular expert " from my point it covers well. PS..plant label changed 🏷

Hi Leslie, thank you, my 'Single Happiness' has also NS 7 cm.

Rudolf, I agree completely with you, there is absolutely no way to differentiate "Paph godefroyae album" from "Paph godefroyae f. leucochilum album"on sight, I just kept the name tag short and same as bought. Happy to call it godefroyae album and still love it just the same... If you can share...

Another albino family member I like to introduce: Paph leucochilum fma album For those who like comparing: all pictures are the same plant: opening now May 2022 previous time was in January 2022 ( yes only 5 months ago! ) and in March 2021 (first ever flowering )

here you go... hope it helps... I also live in Europe and grow in-house under LED in addition to below: thaianum seems to love a bit more light than other brachy's

Really love this little gem... flowers every 7-8 months like clockwork since I got it in 2019

here are my thoughts: stem looks too tall for bellatulum album leaves looks too green for xwenshanense album stem looks too thick for niveum album stem not hairy enough for delenatii plant looks too big for thaianum album godefroye; angthong; concolor already ruled out so I would set my money on...

It's hennisianum album time... same plant flowering again. I really love the small "moustache" it has on the back side... unsure how to call these two small flower parts...

Indeed I found Wichman's shop entry now too... they are both even using the same picture... I belief wichman has mistyped the name :-)

Could you please check your { Paph esquirolei fma album x Paph White Wings } as in the title and in the first posting- is that really the correct spelling? Your screenshot is aligned with plants offered by Asendorfer Orchideenzucht labelled { Paphiopedilum esquirolei var. album `Anja` x `White...

agreed... we are getting a bit off topic... but this (cough cough) would be the color lowii I want 😇

Hi Jim, I buy most of my plants as young plants like "x year from flowering" or "near flowering size" so sadly I have no details from flask to bloom.times.

The second seedling from the community pot in this thread decided to flower. Flower has been photographed with "room background" and with "black background". Which do you prefer?

Lovely flower... But it looks a lot like Paph. Lathamianum to me. This man made cross by W.B.Latham in 1888 of Paph. spicerianum x Paph. villosum was/is very popular for a long time. This will probably end up in a story very similar to x angthong and Greyi...

Hi Rudolf, as you know I am certainly no botianist & sadly I could not find back the source I remember. But if I remember correctly concolor (var./subsp.) chlorophyllum was discribed in the past and later correctly reduced to normal variation within the type species. It was discribed as lacking...
