Gotta love that stonei, but stylistically the photo would have been more effective with the grill of the Suburban as backdrop. :poke:

I like it.

And if you happen to end up with a spare flask...

Nice. I see many pink stars in your future.

Have we seen a picture of the Loddiglossa parent?

That could be a fun cross. Not named yet. When the time comes, I suggest Nodosloddiglossa.

The normal colored ones are quite nice, but that f. sandowiae is truly spectacular.

Agreed!

No one - no person, no institution - has taxonomic authority. Kew probably has as much influence as any entity for accepted orchid taxonomy - and RHS largely follows Kew, of course - and RHS is hugely influential in orchid horticultural usage because they are the designated arbiter of what is...

What could possibly produce this as a natural hybrid? The flower looks purely Cochlo but doesn't really resemble anything else more than all Cochlos resemble each other. The flowering is described as fully sequential. Again purely Cochlo in character. The strongly mottled leaves don't come...

Greetings and Welcome, from in-state.

That probably means that Kew and Natural History Publications have distribution rights outside the Americas. Should just be a matter of time. The book hasn't been released yet. Give them a few days. What I want to know is when it will be released in e-book format.

Looking at the eBay feedback, 10 negative to 155 positive in the last 6 months, would seem to indicate a trend toward recent problems. Further back there are almost no negatives. No matter what the history or perhaps continued attention to truly large orders and established customers (which...

That is by far the most interesting example of the hirsute/squirrel type I have ever seen. And fantastic photos. :clap::clap::clap:

You can always scale back to 'High Class Charlie' if it falls a little short. I don't think Charlie will mind.

A very nice well grown example of forma album. I like the optimism of giving it initials FCC.

What's not to love. :clap::clap::clap::clap:

Similar to Kevin Porter but not Kevin Porter. I think it is micranthum x any of dozens of bellatulum heavy brachy hybrids, and that is probably all you can be sure of unless the seller can tell you more specifically. But if I had to guess, Paph Al Hill (micranthum x Conco-bellatulum).

Crossing with another curled dorsal ruffled petal type is the type of breeding that has been registered more than anything else - with Paph spicerianum and a few spicer heavy complex like Bruno. The 2 pictures I have seen really just look a lot like spicer. Yawn. Crosses with Maudiae-types...

Looks like Lola Bird to me, micranthum x emersonii. The staminode, the spotting in the pouch, quite typical.
