Thanks everyone. It definitely isn't the speediest grower, but it hasn't been too difficult either. It seems to prefer intermediate-warm temperature and slows down in the cool winter conditions it gets from me. That can be arranged!

Thanks Leslie! Yeah it's a nice species. I have some smaller seedlings as well from a flask from Ching Hua I bought a couple years ago. They are likely 1-2 years away from BS. This one is from Forest View out of BC. Unfortunately they don't mention the parents of their seedlings.

I grew this one from a seedling for about 3 years. Still only a single growth, but thankfully that didn't stop it from blooming!

Gorgeous! And very healthy plant!

Wow! Can't say I've ever seen one presented or potted like this!

Great job! Whats your culture regimen for it? Potting mix?

Lovely group photo!

I'll let you know, fingers crossed!

Wow, its gorgeous! Along with the FS too! I love the velvety red

I've been flasking for a while, with varying success. Attached is a recent attempt. I find dendrobium much more predictable (or at least more willing to germinate). I just sowed some parishii selfing seeds last week on 1/2 M&S with 50ml/L coconut water. I presoaked the seeds in coconut water...

This seems to be a more challenging species. Your patience definitely paid off! I haven't tried a basket for this one but its a good idea. I killed one and bought another one in bud last summer thats still doing well. Similar breeding from Sam, although I can't recall the parents. The new growth...

Wonderful result! Great growing and getting it to flower! Sam's parishii are always nice

Gorgeous flower!

It would be tough to improve on that!

Wonderful!! Great job growing it. Did you change any conditions to get it to flower this year?

Very cool! Never seen the albino form of this one before

Great job growing these! It is a tough species to get right, for me at least :)

Very nice indeed!

Good to know. Yes, it did look great back in late May when it bloomed :) Some roots are still ok, but I'm down to 2 growths with 1 leaf each left, and a tiny little nubbin of a start. Fingers crossed. Glad to see these are doing well for you! Keep it up!

Thanks Ibn. Yes, perhaps it was not a big enough clump. There was a small new growth, mature growth in bloom, and one leaf remaining on the oldest growth. Hopefully it pulls through. I've sown the seeds as insurance :) Great pics BTW!
