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 :D

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

How could you sit on a Paph :evil: :scratchhead: Great catch there and good news on replacement.

I was too excited about the new plants that I forgot :(

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

Aw Marco .. I am sure your paph will recover :)
Wow you got a sanderianun! You might need to hang that one! That is going to be quite a show once it blooms!

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

Marco, I can't believe you sat on your paph :shock: :roll:
You better get another new one - Hurray!!!

LOL, There's that fungus stuff again :biggrin:
Congrats on your new haul!

Thanks everyone! :) I just hope i can keep them all alive.

flhiker - The ones i have are about 7-8". I'mno expert here cause these are my first but from what i've heard these can take at least 3 years at this size. Oh yeah...I also sent you a pm. :)
