Some seedling progress

[tnyr5]

Kolorand x roth are now in the 24-30in leafspan range. I'm thinking they could spike any time now.

 

[tnyr5]

I grow impatient...

 

[spujr]

Believe it or not, that's all one plant. Stolon proliferation in flask. I only kept the two plants that did it.

I have an armeniacum like that. Time of compotting I had 15 plants, by the time they bloom it will be 50

 

[Ozpaph]

They look great

 

[tnyr5]

About 7 months after deflasking and the thaianum x Hellas are starting new leads. I wouldn't be surprised if we see spikes before next Spring.

 

[tnyr5]

Ooooookay that's big enough.

 

[spujr]

I think it's pretty impressive you're able to grow them on your kitchen oven.

Is warm there

There’s also a high intensity light in the range hood above

Yep, as expected, I can juuust see a sheath pushing up down in there. 11 1/2 months, new record for me.

 

[tnyr5]

And the next generation of Paph thaianum is born!

Particular congratulations on the Habenarias and the Aplectrum. I don't recall anyone germinating them before. Are those the tropical Habenarias? What media are you using?

 

[tnyr5]

Yeah, tropical, rhodocheila-complex Habs. Media is different for all of them, still experimenting.

Ponthieva racemosa

 

[tnyr5]

Here's vigor for ya: I got this henryanum from Sam right before he closed up for good as a single growth. Now it's ten, and pushing its first sheath. Consistently produces 3-4 new leads per growth. I'll probably use it to add vigor to other grexes, no matter what the flowers look like.

Nice roots!
