The seller I bought this from has confirmed that it is C parviflorum var pubescens and that the name Parville is a trade name from Garden Orchids who bread them and supply him. Garden Orchids seem to like using trade names rather than real names. |

Great pics, what a great Cyp. I wonder if I can grow some for my apartment bldg's garden. Nah, some one will probably just rip them out and walk off with them.

Thanks everyone, and thanks Tindo for bumping this thread up.
This one was just back in my mind as I submitted one of these pics for the calendar competition |

It is in flower again now, but didn't do as well this year. Only two flowers.
