I have several pearcei, dwarf form of longifolium, just divided caricinum, spare lindleyanum (labeled kaiteurum), schlimii, Sedenii, and some other Grande type hybrids. Any in particular you're looking for?

I see that mohrianum is now a variety of mastersianum. Curious. As to cochlopetalums, yeah I've been interested to see how closely related entities may enjoy species status and others that are as close do not; and some whose relationship seems distant are conspecific. One factor is amount of...

Don't need "var. wallisii", it's a synonym.

Mr Reisinger, above, wrote that he can do the description, which is very kind of him.

The herbarium will be Herbarium Bogoriense in Jakarta. If you can photograph the flower and plant parts, and press and dry the parts, it is probable that they have a taxonomist who can definitively determine that you have a new species, and write and publish the description. Their telephone is...

I'm no taxonomist, but the staminode in the second photo is completely different to lunatum. Spotting on petals probably varies. I expect the epithet lunatum refers to the staminode shape. The poster above will have to take closeup photos of a dissected flower, side and front views of...

One of the two individuals of this dwarf form of the Panamanian ladyslipper species to be awarded. Flower photo is from when it got its 83 point AM a couple of years ago. Collected by Muriel Tannaci in Panama in the 1960s, she told me the dwarf plants grow among the normal size (a yard across...

I have 'Drago No. 3' which also has the veining - not all do - and yours looks just about as good. Unlike other species, the veins in lueddemanniana coerulea appear to me to be unpigmented, so darker in that they absorb light, rather than veins carrying more pigment as we would often use...

Those two you mention are epiphytes sure they can take that much water but best in baskets with fine bark. Line the baskets with newspaper to keep the bark from falling out. Others, like pearcei, caricinum, longifoliium f. gracile, can go out and get watered heavily every day.

I suspect they can cross with Cypripedium.

Definitely Temptation. Kolo makes a more square jawed pouch; not so well defined veins on dorsal; not so well twisted petals. Well bloomed for first bloom seedling!

Yes that's a complex Paph.

Do you still have listings on Ebay?

Here are some

In common usage, album in Paphs has green veins and often green petals. Color forms are often mentioned in awards but aren't of botanical significance. The wardii album or alboviride plants have pretty mottling on the leaves. I might have time to go photograph some today,

The bulging pouch and spots do suggest a hybrid. I see several vendors selling what's obviously a hybrid online.

You're welcome.

I use a bonsai pot
