Lotis146, not in 2014, but I have bought quite a few minicats from SVO all of which have been very good to excellent. However, none, so far, have been outstanding. All have been clean, healthy, and well-grown.

So, I have just bought paph. Dollgoldi. I hope I see it flower in my life time. lol
Then I got a whole bunch of parvis and brachys.
Some in bud, some are small, and many are babies that I have to nurture for the next couple of years.
Yay!!!

Not outstanding as in the flowers? I've yet to see a mini Catt in bloom but am looking forward to it. Two i got from Jewell Orchids on ebay have blue in their blooms so I'm anxious to see them. Waiting on Fred from SVO as to the age of the little guys, hopefully next year I'll have some blooms, we'll see. Got any pics of yours? |

I have some and as soon as I can get the time I will send then on. I had bloom on several of them in their original pots within about 12 weeks with 60 degree nights and bright light. I have some pictures now, maybe it can find them.  |

Visited Hausermann's this afternoon and had a bunch of great finds:
Burr. Nelly Isler 'Swiss Beauty'
Den. unicum (Vietnam form)
Dtps. Tying Shin Golden City
Lc. Hausermann's Sultan 'Summer Spectacular' HCC/AOS
Paph. Pinocchio 'Cupping' x Paph. rothschildianum 'Compact'
Phal. violacea var. Borneo x Phal. violacea var. Borneo
Phal. Ho's Wizard's Puzzle x Dtps. Acker's Sweetie
All but three of these were in bloom. One was in bud. Not sure what's going on with the other two, since their website said they should all be in bud or spike.
I was surprised how many plants were in bloom, though I guess with so many greenhouses there are bound to be tonnes of flowers!
