My answer is yes, I prefer to grow hybrids or species (at least the ones I don't kill)!

I prefer species, but am much better at keeping hybrids alive. The 2 genera I mostly grow are Paphs and Phals.

I think species look more natural. I am a beginner in growing catt species and for me nothing compares to a Laelia Purpurata coerulea or Laelia crispa. Also, I like challenge and growing species is an adventure

Some hybrids are too complicated for my taste but I've got a few nice ones

I have to admit that my thinking was all wrong for this one. You all surprised me. I figured it would be No preference, hybrid and then species. Shows you what I know.
