Phragmipedium monograph

[Lars Pedersen]

Hi

I have some good news.
I guess many of you have been waiting for this.

A monograph of the genus Phragmipedium is in the making.

I cant tell much about it yet, but Phrag. / slipperorchid lovers have something to look forward to.

If any of you have great photos of Phrag's in situ, they will be very much apreciated. Of cource you will be given full credit for the pictures.

If you have photos you think may be usefull to us, please PM me.

Tanks in advance.

I can hardly wait! I hope you'll tell us what kinds of photos (besides in situ) you'd be interested in when you need them.

Any idea when it will be available?

Hi Eric,

Yes I know. For me and the direct family 2010 was a very tough year. 2011 was a year of recuperation.
It's my intention to visit the forum regularly again.

Greetings to all,

Rob

Hi

This is a project that I have been working on (on and off) for several years with my german friend Guido J. Braem.

Guido is the main author.

And again if any of you have good photos, that you will allow us to use, we are interested. Of cource you will get credit for the pictures.

Mostly pictures of plants in situ are interesting, but great pictures of cultivated plans are also interesting.

I cant give a publishing date yet, but it is nice to have something good to look forward to.

We will be gratefull for contributinons.

So please PM or email me, if you have pictures you would like to share.

Nice to see you are back Rob !
