Just curious...what does It "my money's on dead" mean? Running out of money?

Beautiful as Always! Thanks!!! Do you know if those are calcareous or granitic type of Stones?

Indeed from the pics It seems they prefer to stay next to the tree, maybe Is there any relantionship with the roots of the trees and their michorrizae?

I know that Paph delenatii grows in the area around Dalat just a bit nort-east of Ho Chi Minh, I visited the Mekong delta area that Is very flat hot and steamy.

A nice family!!! Definetely one of my favourite paph!

I got It as a seedling on may 2018

Thanks for your beautiful pictures!!! Back in november 2019 I was in south Vietnam 'cos I didn't find any good flight to Hanoi. Didn't see unfortunately any paph down there. I guess the northern part Is much more interesting not only for orchids.

Never heard of It, always something to learn! Show a pic of yours to compare.

Coerulea Is awesome but I don't think she would thrive in my climate maybe one day I will dare.

What to say but I like this!

This brings me back memories as I had It in the past. Unfortunately I have lost It and blame myself for little care. However I'm happy for you to have this very special plant! Congrats!!!

Pete, what works best Is the right environment. Anyway, It depends on the vigor of the cultivar. I mounted the "Monster" on a big cork suspended in an orizontal position, then I also use a half coconut for the smaller ones or those that make just a bulb x year, the coerulea Is mounted vertically...

My pleasure Pete! Good luck.

Beautiful!!! Always loved the waxy texture of these flowers.

Mounted or potted it definetely enjoys to stay in the warmer and more ventilated part of the GH. Like Cat. warneri It grows the new bulbs during the winter months so It needs lot of light and warm during the coldest months. It also likes to dry its roots up quickly after watering.

No Leslie, in the GH all year long, with full unshaded sun from december through mid march. Light Is the factor n.1 for good flower production. Outside I only grow cymbidium, some hardy Dendrobium and oncidium flexuosum.

That Is nice!!!

North-western part of Italy (Sanremo), mediterannean climate.

Being a species that grows in a coastal climate, It does just fine where I live.

A nice compact species that every vanda lover should have.
