Nice, but not as nice as the original. Going to miss seeing you guys now that the 2021 MOS Palm Sunday show has been cancelled.

Oh no... I had not heard the MOS Palm Sunday show has already been cancelled. We will miss seeing you too!
Are any shows being postponed over canceled?

 

[tomkalina]

There are probably a lot more that have been, or will be cancelled until there's an effective COVID vaccine. Hopefully, this thing will eventually come under control and things will get back to normal.

Yay besseae hybrids! That's a nice clump. Thanks for sharing.

Just recently got notice that the Paph Forum in DC end of Jan, has been as well. Makes me very sad.

And the Paph Guild meeting that was set for Hilo in 2021 . . .

Yes, in person PF cancelled. I believe the host orchid society is looking to see if there is enough interest for a "virtual" event.

I voted for an virtual session. Hopefully, there will be enough interest in a virtual option!

 

[NYEric]

Pretty much all orchid shows, etc have been cancelled, I hope.

So sad about Washington. As a new grower was looking forward to it and meeting Sam.

Color intensity seems to be all over the place. HAHA. This was in low bud when my greenhouse dipped into the low 40's for a few days when I ran out of gas. Usually it only goes down to 50F.

That is one of the best I have seen. Nicely done!!

This is Phrag Spot On x klotzschianum. This is not my most colorful clone but I like it.
I was really having trouble photographing it. Between my improper staking, form, and the color, it took a few times to get close to right.

Is this cross your namesake?

It is. When I bloomed it from flask, I emailed Bill Goldner to share it a picture. Surprisingly, I was the first person to bloom it. At least the first he was aware of.

Fantastic. I'm adding your name to my tag.
