    Cattleya dowiana var Rosita

    WOW these flowers are lovely, shape and stance are great ..... and I personally like them more than a 'normal' C. dowiana.

    Paphiopedilum rothschildianum ‘Lift Off’ AM/AOS

    I'm wondering ... who looks more handsome, the plant with its flowers or the guy who carries it ? Congrats to the award. 👍

    Cycnoches cooperi ('SVO III' FCC/AOS x 'Memoria Pat Worthington' AM/AOS)

    Sorry for your misshap but nevertheless these are lovely and impressive flowers. Indeed, the backdrop doesn't have to be be a white one but a lighter one. In your photo the dark flowers are drowning in the dark background.

    My Paphs of subg. Sigmatopetalum in 2024

    Tom, I also like it and other green/white forms of Paph species. Without these black dots it would be Paph venustum fma. measuresianum ... but with ... it is only albescens. Yes I know, many call these flowers album or alba (and I also did some years ago), but a green/white/yellow flower never...

    My Paphs of subg. Sigmatopetalum in 2024

    The albescens form of Paph. venustum grows in my conditions ans at the moment more vigoriously than the normal coloured form. She also flowers regularely every year. This year the tiny dots at the centre of the petals are almost invisible, what is a plus ... but on the other hand the petals...

    Orchids 2024

    Indeed Justin, the foliage or the leaf patterns of P. vietnamense can be stunning and sometimes they may be of better quality than the flower. :cool:

    Mold on medium

    That's true .... but fungus isn't fungus and mould isn't mould. There are many diffenent species of mould and only expert are able to distinguish them by using a magnifying glass or a microscope. There are helpful ones, harmless ones and aggressive ones which cause diseases by plants, animals...

    Mold on medium

    That's right ...but if you look closely to the photo you will see the mold is everywhere ... on the surface of the pellets as well as on the rockwool cubes. Furthermore everything seems still to be moist or even wet.
