I'll admit, i do like the look of some of them (when they don't show many ventricosa features), though I am unsatisfied with the rate of ventricosa being included in hybrids. Its too plentiful in my opinion, and even though its easy to grow, and readily available to hybridize, I personally would rather use another species, as ventricosa (in my opinion) dominates in an unfair manner, as it is not a spectacular species, by any means
