Hi all,

Just got my Orchid Digest today and there was an interesting article by Robert L. Dressler on long-petalled Phrags. I scanned the photos for everyone to see. If anyone wants a copy of the article, I can pdf it.

Orchid Digest, Vol 69(2). April-May-June 2005: "La Chinela, Alive & Well in Western Panama: Notes on the Panamanian Long-Tailed Phragmipedium." Pages 86-91.

Thanks for posting! Aren't they just so exquisite? I love the long petalled species!

Oh yeah, that's the kind I like :clap:

I also love long petals :lol: The plant in the first picture , the leaves don't look very big, what do you think the leaf span is? That would be a nice one to get.
