A fundamental category of taxonomic classification, ranking below a genus or subgenus and consisting of related organisms capable of interbreeding. 2. An organism belonging to such a category, represented in binomial nomenclature by an uncapitalized Latin adjective or noun following a capitalized genus name, as in Ananas comosus, the pineapple, and Equus caballus, the horse. usage - "Paphiopedilum rothschildianum is a wonderful species, so much more interesting than other paphiopedilum species." specie : noun - 1. Coinage, sometimes (incorrectly) applied to paper currency. 2. Money usage - "My credit card was declined, so I had to pay the orchid vendor in specie." </pet_peave> :poke: The word police have you surrounded. Drop your weapons, and come out with your infinitives split. TADD August 9th, 2005, 05:40 PM What about specey? Sorry typing error! Littlefrog August 9th, 2005, 05:42 PM What about specey? Sorry typing error! Or maybe spacy? That is the texas way to pronounce species. Paphgirl August 9th, 2005, 06:18 PM LOL! Poor Tadd....:therethere: Dwayne Dibbley August 9th, 2005, 06:50 PM Very nice. The fragrance is very strong , just waiting for mine to bloom again. RickL August 9th, 2005, 07:18 PM Wow :shock: :shock: That is the redest, widest petaled leud I've ever seen. Most of the leuds I've seen look more like fasciata. Does it have know parents? You might consider getting that one judged. Very nice.

Paphraguy August 10th, 2005, 04:46 PM Rick, it has one flower on that spike and another spike is in bud. Here is another photo of the flowers about a year or so ago. http://mysite.verizon.net/vze6o1l1/phalluedde.jpg Park Bear August 11th, 2005, 02:06 PM very nice Peter :clap: |
