Got these from The Gore Orchid Conservatory - Paph and Phrag Orchid Species Specialists - For Sale! Matt has great plants. I never hesitate buying from him.

my very first paph. sanderianum - came with a little damage on the newest leaf, which was cool with me, (cant see it on this photo though) but Matt insisted on sending a replacement

[IMG][/IMG]

my very first parvi species (not a big fan but i will give it a try cause the SO likes the pink fuzzies)


my very first paph philippinense (normal variation) - bad photo though


Well my grow area is full again. But I may end up having more room cause well.....i sat on my of my bigger paphs that was on my seat that i forgot was there.

See it ain't all about neos! lol

Very nice, Marco!
I've always heard rave reviews from anybody who deals with Matt at the Gore Conservatory and I can see why

Hi Marco, I really like the paph sanderianum flower very cool, Are they terrestrial or epiphytic? I went to the web site you added and noticed that they have different sizes of plants available which one in did you get? and how long will the size you bought take to flower? sorry for all the questions but Iam interested it getting one. thanks
