Tom Velardi April 1st, 2007, 05:08 PM Always nice to see Cyps in flower. It looks like they got C. parviflorum and C. kentuckinese to flower together - no small feat! If you have closer shots, that would be nice! grandefan April 1st, 2007, 06:11 PM WOW! Thanks for posting!!! Paphy57 April 1st, 2007, 07:00 PM You need to add a [/img] to the last url Nice photos!!!!!! budsbud April 9th, 2007, 12:50 AM Wowweeee!!!! I love that display! I'm not sure but I think Cyps require quite a different culture than Paphs, no? I totally love the way they look. Not sure if I'm ready for 'em though! TEE530 April 9th, 2007, 11:49 AM Longwood Gardens is in Kennett Square, PA, about 30 minutes out of Philadelphia, and 30 minutes from Wilmington, DE. It is an old DuPont family estate now open to the public as botanical gardens. I got dragged there a lot as a child by my enthusiatic gardening parents; it's only taken me around 30 years to begin to appreciate the place. Four seasons of the year, it is nothing short of amazing. The greenhouses alone are worth a pilgrimmage. At Christmas time, the outdoor lights display draws people from multiple states. Highly, highly recommended whenever you can get there. http://www.longwoodgardens.org/ eplants02 April 9th, 2007, 09:06 PM That is an awesome display! Can you post some larger photos?

I'd say that they are much harder too! |
