I haven't been using orchidboard for awhile, and in coming back I can't find the feature under "user CP" that was called "manage orchids". I may have the name wrong - but it was a list of my orchids,...

I had to look up photos of other seedlings of the cross. Really interesting variations. Genetics is fascinating. I like yours a lot. Some look a bit like a jack-o-lantern face.

This plant has been on my wish list for a while - I love yellow paphs too. I guess these fairies were little boys with bad aim.

Thanks for including the slide show. It's amazing the way orchids interbreed. Beautiful but also very educational to see all the brassavola crosses one after another after another.

I really like that flower, and I don't usually like cymbidiums. They look cramped up or something to me. But that lip is amazing. I wish you luck in IDing your great plant.

measuring "wingspan"

Exactly how do I measure the wingspan of the leaves of my Kolosand? Stretch out my two longest leaves and measure the tip to tip length between them? This would take at least two people.
