Wow!!. nice

 

[Stone]

Nice. I find this species does not particularly like bark as a medium. Not my seedling anyway.

So what does yours like?

Just amazing Rick.

Is it growing in that big basket or is it sitting in another pot?

 

[GuRu]

Congrats Rick, I like it very much.

 

[SlipperKing]

Yes it is in a basket. I bought a number of 9 inch sq. pond baskets and put them to good use! I have approximately 20 bigger Paphs, species and hybrids in them at the moment.

Would like to see one in person some day!

A few sandies and a stonei in baskets. The first pic is 3rd generation breeding from Sam. Notice the green mark on the bottom of the leaf. I oftened mark the top leaf at the axis to the second leaf. I can watch the growth as the two leaves move away from each other. Feb of this year I got plants from him. This one has done the best.
Second pic showing 13.5 inches
Third pic, roots

Unfortunately, I can't write description between the pics using my cell. So a new post. Here is a sandie from Popow in a 5 inch basket but it has put on 2 new leaves and it's 18 inches.
The 3rd is the top of basket.

Very well grown and nice roots. What humidity do you maintain?

Whatever nature provides. Which is 70-90 in the summers, 20% less in the winter months.

Wow....lovely species nice long petals and the other clones looks beautiful.

As humid as our house becomes, I can't imagine the humidity required to grow these in baskets! Thanks for sharing.

How often do you water Rick? The mix looks so open.
