Bree, that looks like it should be a nice cross, it should be dark. It is very hard to find a picture of Paph. Kevin's Wine straight up but can be found in many crosses but again difficult with Paph. sukhakulii. Here is the only picture of Kevin's Wine I could find, scroll about half way down page.

Bree, the cyms are looking good. With the expansion of my shade garden, I am able to pull my cyms out into more air and light. I'm hoping they respond.

Kathy, I can't wait to see that Laelia!

Things are looking good!

I just bought a clear tarp - if we have again downpour after downpour as we had in Spring of 2010, the cage will get a partial cover!
