Show us Paph. that you've killed.

I'd say that's a fair assertion. That's the justification I've been using the past few months to avoid buying the nice, big, healthy sanderianum seedling I've been eyeing at the local nursery. Though, I don't know if I have the willpower to hold out much longer.

Just send me your money and then there won't be any way to buy more plants!

I've lost a couple paphs..

Paph. lowii cross which I never got to see bloom
Paph. niveum cross which flowered once and then rotted
Paph. Fanaticum that was my favourite so I tried to replace it with an outstanding flask.
Paph. rothschildianum
....

The list goes on, but at least I've learn't from my mistakes

I have the weakest willpower around sanderianum... If I wasn't out of space and money, I'd tell you to send me some. Of course, I could skip a few meals, save a few buck, and grow plants on my bed.

Ehanes, the pic of yur multifloral fatality was a monsoon temptation? Damn, that was a beauty

These plants died

i

 

[NYEric]

If they're not dead yet, they don't count. Change the media, add sponge rock and sphagnum and let us know what happens.

 

[Ozpaph]

I dont think they're dead yet - ?sphag and bag?

 

[Justin]

they're dehydrated. do they have roots?

 

[troy]

I've been trying to save them for a while the mem. P.g. was never a strong plant from when I got it in april same with the kolo-pey, I had to remove them from my grow area because of their discoloring maybe they were sick is my guess

 

[troy]

The mem.p.g. smells I repotted last month and the kolo x pey has 2 roots 1 dead but it's an anchor the other very small, I just watered yesterday

 

[Ozpaph]

I think they need some serious humidity, and time.

 

[paphioland]

Hey, What shade of green are those leaves? I need to replicate that. Very dark, dark, kind of dark, medium dark, light dark, medium, light medium...........??????? LOL. Sorry couldn't resist.

It's a long story. Short version, I treated my plants like cacti, 28 day leaves of absence... But here I am, 3 years sober. Now I only kill plants accidentally!

One sad, tiny helenae seedling, but I have some time left to do more harm.

I thought it was related to choking on vomit... It was actually someone else's vomit... Well, they can't prove whose vomit it was... You can't really dust for vomit...
