Lucky you!!!! The flowers are spectacular. I grow a few purpurata and they are strong and big....however, I believe the lack of seasonal temperature changes we have in French Guiana prevent them from flowering!!! Would love to have nice flowers like yours!

Hi everyone, I’m not sure it’s the best place to post this…… I will soon travel to Borneo, the mythical land of most of our favourite slipper orchids, more specifically around the city of Kutching. I was wondering if some of our members knew a bit about the orchid scene there, and if flasks...

Amazing! Why don't I have this species yet! Next on my shopping list! Thank you for this post Clark.

Amazing! One of my prefered species!

In my case, the media is always wet enough and the plants grow at an impressive rate. This is most likely explained by the equatorial weather we have in French Guiana and these plants enjoy. Maybe, as some suggest it could be a sort of light deficiency. I've checked yesterday and the plastic...

My shadehouse is equipped with a misting system. The system has enough coverage and water flow to keep the substrate of the plants humid year long without any manual watering. So far, I've been using this system mostly to keep humidity during the dry season or make sure the plants are watered...

Hi, it’s not a matter of worries because the leaves always end up erected and strong in the end. However, I find it quite puzzling to see these big new leaves always dangles on the side while in active growth. Have some of you observed similar things? Here are pictures of a Julius and a Sunlight...

Antother question related to growing these plants in the Amazon. I have a few purpurata I received as small seedlings and they are growing extremely well for me. They must be about 45cm high now. Happy with my results, I was looking to purchase more...but I'm afraid I will never be able to...

I forgot to post picture of the lueddemanianna!!! The flower is much darker than what is the picture showing. I had another one, a semi-alba, but it blasted unfortunatly.

I will make sure to keep an eye open for these flasks when they will be available in the future! @DrLeslieEe please keep us updated! I often come to Montreal to see my familly (I'm originally from there but now live in French Guiana). Cheers, Mathieu

Very impressive dark label color!

I wish to know too!!!! This has been a nightmare with my besseae hybrids too. For most of my plants, switching them to a sphagnum moss based substrate helped a lot.

OMG, this is one hybrid one seldomsly see!

I could surely help with compots!

Very very cool! Where did you find an anitum. I would be tempted by one too! Cheers

Superb display! btw, It's a HE, not a SHE 🤣

They are from Thailand according to their website. Might be hard to import...

Interested!

Hi everyone, a quick question, I have some composts that are growing strong and I would need your advices. Would you put these in individual pots or wait longer in compost? Cheers, Math
