Default been a "good boy" this weekend...


well... I had planned to go to the Orchids Show in Karlsruhe (a German city, about 2h north of Basel), in order to meet two friends and to pick an order of 3 plants from Orchideen Kopf Shop, so, yesterday morning I took the train and some €s

Original list looked like this:

Masdevallia lilacina IOSPE PHOTOS
Masdevallia lamprotyria IOSPE PHOTOS
Trichocentrum tigrinum IOSPE PHOTOS

and somehow all these other plants came attached to the 3 mentionned aboce!!! no idea how this could be!!

Pleurothallis grobyii IOSPE PHOTOS
Masdevallia mejiana (I was looking for this one since at least one year!) IOSPE PHOTOS
Clowesetum Rebecca Northern (finally!!!) Sunset Valley Orchids - Grower and hybridizer of quality orchids, Vista CA
Paphiopedilum helenae var. delicatum (what can I say here!?) http://img366.imageshack.us/img366/1...delicatjp2.jpg
Paph. Wössner Helene (Paph. helenae x charlesworthii) <-- could not find a picture of this
Paph. herrmanii paphiopedilum hermannii
Phrag. andreettae Phragmipedium andreettae

well... what can I say..

Ooooh! Ramon! The Paph. helenae var delicatum is divine! Doesn't look at all like Paph. helenae. And Paph. herrmanii is really neat! I like both of these very much. On the list they go.....groan.

Oh, how exciting! If you find you don't have room for all them, I'd be willing to "babysit!"

Nice work, Ramón! Man! That Paph helenae var. delicatum is INSANELY awesome! Just gorgeous.

(And yet another instance of helenaes in EU but not over here! )
