There is so much to like! 'Nice photography, too. I really enjoyed the pics of the mini-bog. I hope mine looks a fraction that nice when things have matured.

Did the N. lavicola come from Andreas?
 
  • #204
I love that miranda photo. Very peaceful and serene..
 
  • #205
Great pics of some beautiful plants!

The naga my look cute now, but it'll be a beast in a few years. That mini bog is only 2 years old. It filled in so fast!
N. lavicola is seed grown, got it as a gift from Mike. I'm hoping it's female so I can make some new hybrids with mind blowing colors and shapes. Miranda is peaceful for now, until it gets huge.

Oh wow how did I miss your pics! Gorgeous - I imagine in 3 years we're going to see all sorts of baby nagas flying around all over the place from those who managed to nab and sprout those seed :drool:

And man, what is the world coming to.. I can actually identify P.cyclosecta now :lol:
 
  • #208
I've been busy with work. I'm off for a week due to sciatica, so I figured why not finish up these photos?
P. cyclosecta is an easy one! Not many other Pings have that purple pigmentation.

I love your plants, especially the S. flava rugelii and U. multifida! :D
 
  • #211
The U. multifida is a pretty one, but cross pollinating them by hand to get seed is a pain. I do love how robust the rugelii is, and the Japanese maple really makes the colors kick.
 
  • #212
I never know which plants to comment on from your posts. There are always numerous that I really like. The lighting on the S. flava rugelii is very nice and makes them look like they are florescent. And the Psygmorchis flower is just amazing.
 
  • #213
The Psygmorchis is almost always in flower. It's opening its 3rd one right now.

Now if the giant raff would make a pitcher....

S. purpurea Caroline Co. VA are looking great WM:).

Wow, those have grown a lot! Nice variability in this population. I'm seeing the same thing with mine.

In other news, the Psygmorchis has managed to put out 2 flowers at once, overlapping each other.

Here's the video update on the tropical plants! Lots of newer stuff.

I have some bad news. I lost my job a few days ago and I had to get rid of my entire Sphagnum collection, the N. rafflesianas, and a lot more will have to go soon. If my appeal doesn't go through or I can't find a new job then I'll have to get rid of my giant day gecko as well. This is an upsetting time for me, especially right after the ICPS conference.
 
  • #219
Sorry to hear that Graham. Hope everything works out...
 
  • #220
NOT THE SPHAGNUM MOSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hope you dont have to get rid of your day gecko man! Maybe someone nearby can care for it for a while??
