This is my first try and got a very good germination rate. It seems to be quite easy to grow in vitro . The pod was Mexipedium xerophyticum (Windy Hill) x self and I sowed it in the same medium that I am using for seed sowing in Phrags: (P668@1/2 + coconut water + pineapple juice). I will...

It is a very nice and very well grown pearcei. Please save a small piece for me when you repot it. Love the red tones of this one. I do have similar clones from Perú but none of them so nice.

12C is a very good night temperature for kovachii

Very few hybrids registered. This is orchideya database:

If it is happening only in the old growth do not worry too much, but if it is happening also in the new growths I think that would be temperature issue. As said by troy this species is very sensible to high temps. What I have learned after killing lots of kovachii plants and seedlings is that...

nice one. The intense red in petals makes it very interesting.

It is very nice

Thanks for your kind comments. I am Very happy with this plant, it is one of the best schlimii.

Yours got extra color! Our seedlings are blooming paler than this one. Thanks for sharing.

I posted this plant before but I am sure you will enjoy it again. I think that it could be one of our best schlimii so far. NS is 6cm, quite good for schlimii. Previous post and the sad history of this population: http://www.slippertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=40519 Enviado desde mi...

popowii, nice one

what kind of media are you using? too "hot" media does not allow germination. roth is quite easy to germinate.

Checked my notes: TDS = 156 PPM pH= 5.74 water temperature= 22.5C @t noon. Substrate acid rock volcaniclastics and altered igneous (granite). 10 to 0cm of sphagnum moss over it

I measured the pH of the water in the moss arund the root system and it was around 5.5 in two of the anguloi habitats.

volcaniclastics.

Thanks for the nice pictures. That is the original population, the one where the holotype comes from. We have discovered another 3 populations but the plants of the original one are the nicest.

great pictures!! the spider in the second flower was waiting for the pollinator :)

Dan, very well grown. It is one of my favourite phrags also. Mines also are having the same leaf tip problem because I grow them too cold. This grow naturally in the lowlands ( very hot and humid ).

Yes, good customer service. I think mine is on the way.

Thanks a lot! I am visiting the area by the end of June. If someone is interested in coming please let me know. The area is safe and the walk is not too hard.
