Thanks for sharing. Paph Lippewunder could change my mind about not wanting those round complex Paphs!

I left the show about 3:40 pm - just missed you!

Thanks for sharing, I couldn't go this year because I'm headed for Jamaica next weekend. I was hoping for some of Forestview Gardens complex (like Lippewunder) maybe I'll find species mini-flasks in Jamaica to tide me over.

I'm so jealous Jo! Next year I'll have to time a trip to Alberta to coincide with the show.

The color of the Sunset Glow is just perfect. What did the one Cyp. parviflorum say to the other? "Hey man, its February, why you up so early?!"

 

[orcoholic]

Nice. thanks.

 

[NYEric]

...What did the one Cyp. parviflorum say to the other? "Hey man, its February, why you up so early?!"

:rollhappy: It was cool to see this in bloom at this time of year. It was a lovely plant. I took a lot of photos of it.

Thanx for sharing. What'd you buy!?oke:

Besides the three plants that I pre-ordered from Ecuagenera, nothing. How bizarre is that? I was totally engrossed in taking photos with my new camera this year. And nothing jumped out at me from the vendors table begging me to buy it...weird, I know.

My Ecuagenera pre-order is a Phrag. Olaf Gruss, Masd. Floribunda and a Cattleya maxima.

 

[NYEric]

Wow, unusual for ecuagenera to have besseae hybrids like that.

 

[Kyle]

No, they have a few hybrids. Mostly Hanne Popow and Olaf Gruss. They used to have Maria Glanz, but I think they are out.
