View Full Version : Wanted: Paphiopedilum micranthum alba ejchow84 November 25th, 2009, 09:13 PM Hey Guys I was hoping to find someone who may know where I can get a Paphiopedilum micranthum alba. I know it's expensive so no need to inform me of the fact! Thanks! dragonfly22 November 25th, 2009, 09:23 PM Not only expensive but hard to find. You can inquire with Sam at Orchid Inn. Good luck with your search! Justin November 26th, 2009, 11:35 AM good luck and let us know the outcome of your quest. ejchow84 November 26th, 2009, 11:46 AM Sam doesn't have any nor do any of the other Paph growers around here. I think I have some international contacts so I will definitely try those out. Justin November 26th, 2009, 08:06 PM Zephyrus orchids in canada has a division advertised for $4,000 and another for $5,000. http://www.zephyrusorchids.com/DIVISIONS.htm Paphy57 November 26th, 2009, 08:54 PM And there is no guarantee that if you find one, it will be a true alba. Most of them bloom and end up showing a red line somewhere on the petals. paphioland November 26th, 2009, 11:13 PM Hey Guys I was hoping to find someone who may know where I can get a Paphiopedilum micranthum alba.

However, I have seen nurseries "touch up" their flowers so that people think they are buying flower and are actually buying something else >_< donovan November 29th, 2009, 06:27 AM hi!! i know a grower in italy, specialized in paphs, that have micranthum alba. truly micranthum album cause i see it some month ago on flower :D i buy some paph and others orchid by him, always great plants! i dont know in effect international selling condition... he ask 1500 euro for adult plant blooming size. take a look on his website, riboniorchidee.it cheers dono |
