Ooh, me likey! Now I finally have two plants I can vote for since the second ones always seem to be either a cold grower, too expensive, or not possible to find everywhere...
I've just ventured into the wonderful world of Paphs and another one (particularly one as beautiful as this) would be most welcome.

These are small, intermediate to warm growers, easy and (except for Canada) on the cheap side... ;-)

Nice ones! All of these can grow well in intermediate temps? Some may be a bit large though, particularily the last one that says spikes can be 60cm!

Hhhmm... Just see that in IOSPE...  never seen one with such long spikes... Always quite compat plants... But ok... If IOSPE says so...
I only rememberr one plant that was huge, but at the end it resulted being a hybrid!

I'll research them a bit further then, and at home I'll see what Orchidwiz has to say.

I'm updating the list. Isn't Phal bellina one that prefers warm temps to grow?

Not sure, Camille... What does orchidwiz say? I no not grow this species, but one of the orchid society members here grows only Phalaenopsis, and she always emphasizes that he grows everything under intermediate (upper range)...
