View Full Version : New Plants Have Arrived Finrod August 18th, 2007, 08:00 PM My latest purchases arrived on Friday. primulinum var flavum and Phrag. caudatum var wallisii. The primulinum has two nice new growths just starting to develop. :woohoo: Paphy57 August 18th, 2007, 08:10 PM Keep a close eye for bacterial rot on the wallisii! The long petalled phrags are prone to it. Nice plants! Paphi August 18th, 2007, 08:31 PM very very pretty:Party::heart::heart: orchidlover August 18th, 2007, 08:35 PM They are gorgeous plants! I don't think wallisii is called a caudatum. Aren't they 2 different species? budsbud August 18th, 2007, 08:39 PM Cool plants!!! rdlsreno August 18th, 2007, 08:42 PM Cool plants!:cool: Ramon:D Paphy57 August 18th, 2007, 08:45 PM They are gorgeous plants! I don't think wallisii is called a caudatum. Aren't they 2 different species? Yes. Wallisii Is a separate species. So the proper name is Phrag. wallisii, not caudatum var. wallisii goldenrose August 18th, 2007, 09:39 PM :woohoo:Good choices! Slipperguy August 18th, 2007, 10:50 PM Awesome plants...:cool: Paphraguy August 19th, 2007, 12:31 AM Yes. Wallisii Is a separate species. So the proper name is Phrag. wallisii, not caudatum var. wallisii Actually, I think wallisii is now called warscewiczianum and warscewiczianum is now popowii.

Thanks for that. :thumbsup: Finrod August 19th, 2007, 05:28 AM Actually, I think wallisii is now called warscewiczianum and warscewiczianum is now popowii. Thanks. I wondered about its current status. toddybear August 19th, 2007, 06:20 AM Plant taxonomists...can't live with them, can't live without them. Paphy57 August 19th, 2007, 10:26 AM Actually, I think wallisii is now called warscewiczianum and warscewiczianum is now popowii. Crazy Taxonomists! They should leave them be! Paphraguy August 19th, 2007, 10:45 AM Crazy Taxonomists! They should leave them be! Well, in my house I can call my plants anything I like and I'm still calling my wallisii as wallisii and not warscewiczianum. :lol: Paphy57 August 19th, 2007, 10:48 AM Well, in my house I can call my plants anything I like and I'm still calling my wallisii as wallisii and not warscewiczianum. :lol: I'm with you on that one!! LOL! budsbud August 19th, 2007, 10:56 AM I'm with you on that one!! LOL! Me too!!! Or me three!!!! Hien August 19th, 2007, 02:15 PM Actually, I think wallisii is now called warscewiczianum and warscewiczianum is now popowii. I think the scientists try to keep out brains sharp with working out. Reminds me of a vietnamese children story. Long long ago, there was a guy with a cat. He though his cat was the best ever. So the name cat is not good enough. He then named the cat Sky (since Sky is the highest & biggest of all) Then one day, his friend said: Sky is not so great, the cloud can obsures it. Well, promptly he changed the cat's name to Cloud. then, another friend said, the wind can blow away the cloud, well he changed the cat name to Wind. the next friend said, the wall can stop wind, he changed the cat name to Wall. well , another friend mentioned that the rat can dig a hole into the wall. He changed the cat's name again to Rat. You can guess what the next person said, right.?:p Paphy57 August 19th, 2007, 04:10 PM Good story Hien!! :p Finrod August 20th, 2007, 05:31 AM Well, in my house I can call my plants anything I like and I'm still calling my wallisii as wallisii and not warscewiczianum. :lol: Good idea. Easier to write and pronounce. A rose by any other name is still covered with thorns. :lol1: Wish I had bought 3 or 4 more of the primulinum. They were dirt cheap ($15) for such big plants. :( |
