Final decision!! WOC... I am sending in!!

It was around 1830hr today (10th Nov 2011), when I was at my little garden watering all my paphs, a call came in "We are waiting for you to send in your plants, are you coming down soon?"


Err... I had not even arranged anything for WOC as I wasn't sure if I really want to send for display or judging.


My reply was "err.. at the garden now, preparing, preparing... coming coming.." after putting down the phone, in less than 30min, I picked up 7 paphs, put them in the basket and left to the event hall at Marina Bay Sand.


For the every first time, yes! Am participating in such a big (scale) orchids show! I don't really care about the outcome whether any of my paphs will be judged or even winning any ribbons, I only hope more hobbyists in SG will learn that it's not difficult to grow slipper orchids. (as long choosing the right ones)


I hope I can take this opportunity to share with others that if I can grow them, so can you..


I will be visiting WOC this sunday morning, and yes, I hope to see you there...


God Bless..

Getting Ready...

TO SHOW OFF.. Ha

Both petals are coming out longer now... See you again in a few days time...

What is coming my way?

After growing this for the last few years, finally the spike appeared about a month ago, and patiently I waited. This is what I saw this morning, OH! I still have to wait for another few more days!

Understood that it does not usually have many flowers, so, 2 is good for the first bloom!

Paph spicerianum

Paph spicerianum

Just another few spicerianum.. With another few more blooming soon! Can't wait to see all of them in action!

Paph (Emulate x Janet Kunkle) x Hsinying Citron

Paph (Emulate x Janet Kunkle) x Hsinying Citron

This flower is almost 25% bigger compare to the first one that bloomed 2 weeks plus ago, I am impressed with the size! Currently, there are almost 30 plus of them with buds. Certainly going to be very spectacular when the rest of them bloom!

Paph henryanum

Paph henryanum

Just another henryanum that bloomed recently, currently only left with a few with buds. After which, perhaps would need to wait for another year before I could see the them in bloom again..
