Bad ass beautifull!

I was initially looking for this type of lightbox, but I don't seem to find one with a rectangular/vertical shape that would be adequate to photograph large multiflorals or Phragmipedium. Math

I'm still undecided but you make some good points, and maybe having a small (not much free space) permanent photography setup inside the home would be a good idea. I already have a quite good camera with both macro and portrait zoom f/2.8 and I'm mostly trying to decide on lightning. Flash...

Yes, it's what I'm afraid of. I have one plant of this exact same cross, and maybe 4 other plants with Tarantulas as a parent....and about 6 others with fancy names from OI that I haven't bloomed yet. I now acquire my flask exclusively from Xavier, who I trust, as I've experienced enough...

I grow my multifloral at about 6000+ fc during peak......I guess way higher than most of you. I'm lucky to have constant high humidity and some wind.

Yep, I'm in contact with Rob! Many thanks

Strong adductum/anitum influence! Could it be a Johanna Burkhart/Wossner Black Wing? I would say that in the Orchid Inn Super Special Tag Lottery, you are a not a looser! :)

Hi Nelson, did the plant flowered in the end? Was it what you expected? Please share picture . Cheers, Math

Both very cool! I was wondering how long does the flower stay open for you? I have a plant flowering every year, but each time the flower seems to drop at around 2 weeks. Cheers, Math

Whoawhoawhoaaww! You know its my favourite Cattleya species so far for it ease of flowering in my climate! Superbe, Math

Absolutely amazing! Congratulation for flowering this specie! Did you purchased it already a large plants or did you grow it as a seedling? Would you share a picture of the whole plant? Superbe! Math

My shadehouse is about 70m from my home and I would love something I can easily bring there, take the pictures of the flowering plants and quickly dismantle and run with before the next flash flooding rainfall 😅. The USB cord capablity for lightning would provide me with the option of using...

Most likely there must already some threads dedicated to this but couldn't find them with my keyword search. I would love to purchase a photography light/studio box that is easy to operate and transport (a plus would be that the light can be powered by a USB). Most product I find on Amazon are...

Here check this account of besseae in the wild. https://www.slippertalk.com/threads/new-discovery-of-a-phragmipedium-besseae-population-from-peru.55197/ I don't think a daily misting will be detrimental 😅 . Cheers, Math

These are 10L pots! So quite big indeed!

A Paph. Temptation?

Very curious about your success in finding flasks in Europe? To whom did you purchase in the end? What is your experience like?

So, I made some more observations. These round spots are most likely due to fungus and each years appears at the start of the rainy season when the climate switch very quickly (in a matter of a few days) from very dry to extremely humid and rainy. While I have not been able to prevent these...

Hahahahaha, that one good way to take life! 😅 Good point, I will dig up this tread to give a follow up!

Again, for the sake of paying homage to JP Faust amazing work, I've dig up this second tread. Here is my Farfadet's Smile. This is a keeper for me! I love it! Here are some pictures: And the last picture next to Farfadet's Strike
