I am interested. There is a business, Troy Meyers, that specializes in propogating species, and is free.If your Private Message box was not full, I would contact you.
I would look at the ph of the rock and soil where they grow and adjust the agar around that. I got two flasks a few years back but they had low germination levels. I have several plants from those flasks now and one has flowered at last. I hope to get this species in flask as CITES in my country deems my plants legal and will help me export my flasks if only I can make them. We selfed one. No luck though. another may be spiking.
Well it has had some problems lol. Some ar**hole in Australia reported to CITES saying I imported or smuggled my canhii and rungsuriyanum into Australia. CITES Australia contacted me to ask for proof of legal import. So I sent them several emails in which they had given me instructions on how to legally import those flasks. I also sent copies of my phytosanitary permits which stated Paphiopedilum canhii and Paphiopedilum rungsuriyanum tissue culture/flasks on them. CITES Australia emailed me back to say my plants from these flasks are legal in Australia.
However some here in Australia and overseas. You know the type, vindictive, jealous, ego driven. They still like to gossip even though the truth is proven.
Hi Mr Canh
I would be very pleased to sow some seeds of canhii for European hobbysts but how about the plants in the future? will they be legal even from seed grown plants?
Thank you.
I tried to PM you back...
