I do have a few species currently flowering:


this is the second plant I bought as villosum var. laichauense, and this time it is the real thing:

This I bought as villosum, well, since I only have one other gratrixianum, I don't mind. Nice flower:

This is the second flower on this recent import, the first one in September was smaller but darker. Dorsal diameter on this one 6,5cm, nothing to complain about (well, the stam is seriously out of angle :))

and a insigne which I recently bought in bud. Nat. spread is 13 cm, I consider breeding with another clone I have.

Also in flower are another insigne, spicerianum, coccineum, henryanum, but taking pics in this weather is a pita.

Enjoy!

Hi Carsten,

you said 'enjoy' and I really enjoyed your photos!!!
Paph villosum, gratrixianum and insigne are a bit out of fashion in most of the collections nowadays but they are really worth to grow. Well done!!

Best regards from/to Germany, rudolf
