A friend asked me post this picture of his recently awarded Yelva Myhre. It got 80 points at the Essex show.

Very nice one. Is it fragrant?

Great! Let me know when they're available. Do you have any of the Elfin's Romance available? maybe I'll come to Montreal in the spring if you have some.

Gorgeous!! Nice Hanne Popow too. What have you crossed it with?

It looks very robust. Nice foliage.

Nice ones!

Very nice! Great photo too. I love the lighting on the bud and the stem.

Great colour.

They were in flask, so not jungle collected. I meant they were not the result of a long and extensive breeding program. The vendor claimed that he was the first to get them to grow roots in flask. I'm skeptical about that, but how many generations could there be between 1981 and 1994? Not many.

Nice one. Better shape than many. is it fragrant?

It doesn't have any kind of breeding. I bought it in 1994 or 95.

I've had this one since it was a protocorm in the mid '90's. I bought a flask from Huronview Nurseries in Ontario. It's had a couple of near death experiences over the years, but it's survived along with a couple of siblings. It's pretty good for such an oldie. NS is 7.4, PW is 2.6 and it's...

For sure. It didn't miss by much. Lost power for 24 hours, but no property damage.

That's a beauty Dan. Sign me up for a division.

What's the pink one in the first photo?

That's great. I'm glad they're making a comeback. I haven't seen any for 3 or 4 years here in Ottawa. This year I saw a few but didn't find any eggs.

Very nice! What do you have it mounted on?

Thanks. Maybe I'll give one a try. They're coming to Ottawa in October. Usually the eastern societies share the cost of sponsoring a foreign vendor for a speaking tour in the fall, so they may be going to Toronto and Montreal as well. Yes, I have a few Cyps from Garden Slippers.

I's love to have a tibeticum, and they're even coming for a visit to Canada in October, but I think the summers are just too hot here to grow them outside in the garden.

Cool. Good to know. Thanks. The picture is back. It's lovely!
