Default Locarno Orchids Show, new purchases

Last weekend I was at the Locarno Orchids Show in South Switzerland. It was a rather dissapointing show, but I could find some nice plants and also have some very good discussions with friends and contacts from Orchids nurseries in Germany and South America.
And I jus wanted to show you all here what came with me back to Basel

Pic 1: Ctsm. planiceps and Ctsm. pileatum var. aurem, both plants are quite large (PBs = 6.5 - 7.5 inches)
Pic 2: Ctsm. expansum, new import from Ecuagenera, bare root but in good conditions - looks like a dwarf when next to the planiceps and pileatum(PBs = 2.75 inches)
Pic 3: Dendrobium aggregatum x jenkinsii (Labelled this way, I will have to wait for it to bloom, and also e-mail the nursery for ID confirmation)
Pic 4 and 5: Phrag. lindenii and Phrag. fischerii, both are new imports from Ecuagenera. Phrag lindenii looks very small to me (7 inches tall), but with a flowers spike. The Phrag lindenii plant I know from Venezuela are at least 4 times taller!
Pic 6: Trichoglottis triflora, 3 plants in one mount
Pic 7: Neostylis Lou Sneary, Dendrobium brassii, Dendrobium pachyphyllum, Pteroceras semiteretifolium (2 plants) and Haraela retrocalla (2 plants in the front)
Pic 8: well, I finally joined the group pf Haraella retrocalla owners
