Whoops! Forget the question on the Rhynchostylis gigantea var. devarajunii. All I had to do was a quick search with google and it came right up. I must have misunderstood him.

Those are such great choices that there is just no reason to pass on them.

You are right, neither OrchidWiz nor the RHS have this listed. It was in a mixed group of Cattleya hybrids, brought in for sale at a show. Nex Saturday I can find out which nursery it came from, so we can try to get to the bottom of this.

In the meantime, here is a photo of the flower.

Well, following the Deep Cut show, I left on a two week business trip. Being separated from my plants, I promptly launch into withdravals, which can only be quieted by browsing Ebay, The Orchid Mall and special offers coming in from nurseries where I have bought before.

That leads to:

Ebay seller #1:
Paph Winston Churchill 'Indomitable'
Paph Paeony 'Regency'
Aerides quinquevulnerum, var. calayana

Ebay seller #2
Paph Stone Crazy
Paph Ice Age

Ebay seller #3(Asctm miniatum x Ren philippinensis)
(Seidenfadenia mitrata x Rhy coelestis)
(Aer lawrenceae x Asca Tubtim Velvet)

Ebay seller #4(V. lamellata x Seidenfadenia mitrata)
Ren citrina

Ebay seller #5
Aerides rubescens
Ascocentrum christensonianum
Catt Pinata Surprise

SVO new seedling list:
18 minis (7 crosses, mostly spotted)
8 Laelia anceps seedlings (4 crosses)
2 Laelia millerii seedlings

Of course, with winter weather hammering the Northeast, only one shipment has come in as yet.

Pretty much my entire collection has been purchased in the last few months. A couple of my favorite acquisitions so far are:
Onc. Sharry Baby 'Red Fantasy'
Paph. Crouching Tiger
Mltnps. Lennart Karl Gottling '#12'
Leptotes bicolor (1st flower just opened yesterday)

Already have 3 more trips over the next few months planned specifically for orchid purchasing... This has already reached obsession level!

Great start you have there!

Sharry Baby smells wonderful and I LOVE Miltoniopsis Lennart Karl Gottling hybrids! Quite variable but all beautiful in exotic way!
