I think I will have to inspect them closely to make sure you did ok. If there are any tiny defects I will let you know and spare you the burden of keeping the grotesque misshapen thing. PM me for my address so as you can send them to me ASAP.

You certainly did well in the Paph department.

Great list!  I can't imagine what that P. micranthum x P. superbiens will look like!
Den. cuthbertsonii can come in many colors, like pink, orange, yellow, white, purple, and combinations of those colors. The most typical is red, but I think the most showy and attractive!
