Slc. Mini Apricot - first bloom seedling
Well, it's not an award-winner, but it's really cute. Nice sized flower on a very reasonably sized plant. Eyecatching colors and decent form. Notably, it's also a really vigorous plant - it has 3 leads as a very young plant in a 3" pot.
California Apricot "Orange Circle" x Sl. Minipet 'SVO'
I got this from Sunset Valley Orchids. Sunset Valley Orchids - Grower and hybridizer of quality orchids, Vista CA Just can't say enough about the quality of their breeding program and the quality of their plants. |

You've done some first class breeding work yourself Duane, so an endorsement from you really means something. SVO has certainly had some fantastic plants on eBay the last couple years.

I've bought several of their select seedlings on eBay, and they have been first class. I hesitate to mention it because it will increase the bidding for plants, but my favorite search on eBay is "SVO Select." Just about every offering with that term in it is tempting (nothing there right now, but Peter puts something up most weeks).
Paph Mad in Madison? I used to love my visits to Madison. Great city, wonderful orchid society. Always put on a good show, too.

I chaired a couple of those shows back when they were still at the mall, but I haven't been involved for may years now You were always a favorite with the society whenever you made it to Madison.
