Hi Glen, this is my first foray into posting. This is a good time for the roths, longissimums, fascinators etc. The F3 generations are coming in very nicely now.

Hey Bill Thoms, glad you finally decided to join our little family of "Orchid Addicts". We have quite a few Bulbophyllum fanatics who, once they find out that you are now a member will bombard you with questions. Sorry about the confusion about Judging last month.
Hi Sir G, no problem about the judging. Glad the plant was recognized as worthy. I have to go to Chicago this weekend, but Dorie may bring a few plants to judging. I have a SUPER Bulb. mastersianum in bloom that should be in fine shape on Sat. THe Tampa judging is this coming Wed PM (a week early) so it might go there. Bulb. mastersianum is fairly rare and this clone I got in Thailand (from Borneo) is very robust and a great flower. Please send me an email since the biggest photo I can send over this format is less than 20 KB which is tiny.
Bill's mastersianum is awesome! I was lucky enough to see it in person at Orlando judging and it is a phenomenal plant with perfectly arranged umbels.
Great job growing Bill.
Saw one of these at another local grower's greenhouse (but the name on the label was one of the synonyms of this species) a couple weeks ago; the way parts of the flowers jiggle around is amazing.
