Some in-situ photos

I was asked to share it with you.

Enjoy!

Awesome! What species is it? It looks like some kind of parvi or brachy species in pic 3 and 4 (it is hard to tell from the photos)?

I also love that begonia species, awesome foliage (I also have a thing for Begonia's )!

Hi Robert, It's Paph. rungsuriyanum.

Hi Robert, It's Paph. rungsuriyanum.

Great, thanks! That is why I didn't recognize the foliage (I haven't seen that species yet in person...).

That's our baby rungsuriyanum. How high up from the bottom was that? Thanks for sharing send some to me!

I would say that spot is 'very' well drained!

Great 'in-situ pics', thank you for sharing. It is always an honour to see these kind of pictures. Is there any kind of habitat description to go with these?
Altitude, orientation, temps etc?

Amazing! Thank you.

Pretty much looks like the species grows directly on limestone and the roots are covered with a little moss and lichens.

Thanks for sharing. I guess that I'd ought to try growing begonias in my environment before getting one of those. Since both plants looks happy ..lol

Amazing how little detritus it take to allow an orchid to take root. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice little colony. Look a bit like eburneums.

Probably with the bulk of the roots in humus in the cracks where there is a little moisture retained or seepage. But interesting to see a few roots wandering over bare rock! These type of pics are very instructive.
I presume this is the dry season?

wonderful pictures - thank-you

 

[polyantha]

That is awesome!

The photo was taken the week before I posted it. It is indeed the dry season.

A couple more:

I will try to get answers of all the inquiries.

Ouch, that makes me thirsty just looking at it!

 

[Lmpgs]

Very informative! Thanks for sharing.

look at those exposed roots crawling over the rock!
