Dear Colin,
it is necessary to write more detailed about the winner of the Grand
Champion with Calanthe sieboldii.
The winner was benched by Franz Glanz - Wossner Orchideen, a well known
cultivator and hybridizer from Unterwossen in the south of Bavaria in
Germany. 

Best greetings from the Achental, the same valley were Franz has his nursery

2005-02-28 Thread Olaf Gruss


From: Olaf Gruss
Subject: Orchids Digest, Vol 7, Issue 99 from Viateur[OGD] what is the name
of that hybrid / or is it a species ?

1965 Kim Il Sung came to an official visit to Indonesia. As a present
President Sukarno named an orchid as Kimilsungia. He used the name for a
cross between Dendrobium Ale Ale Kai and Dendrobium Pompadour. This cross
was made and registered officially as Dendrobium Clara Bundt by Carl Bundt
from Makassar, Sulawesi, in the January of 1964.
10 years later plants of this cross came to Korea and were produced in
masses. They were shown in different exhibitions especially exhibitions of
the Kimjongilia Federation.
So the name Kimjonilia is only a name, accepted only in North-Korea, the
official name fort his beautiful cross is Dendrobium Clara Bundt.

Best greetings from the frozen Bavaria

Subject: [OGD] Paphiopedilum sangii so-called forma ayubiianum

Dear Peter,
the discussion is really curious.
The name var. ayubianum or ayubii was never used officially, it was a
working title for a planned description 5 years ago. But we decided to wait
with an official description in the hope to get more informations about,
perhaps to see also more plants.
I don't know who have used the name then for this plant, but it is nothing
more then a (trade)name for a perhaps regional form of Paph. sangii. Perhaps
in a discussion the name was used but nothing more.
When you have doubts about this plant and need more pictures of the plant,
then ask me. I could take many pictures of, perhaps then you can decide if
it is.

Best greetings from Bavaria

Subject: [OGD] Paph sangii

Dear Steve,
there is not so a great difference in the plant between the typical Paph.
sangii and the so named but not officially described forma ayubianum.
The plant is normally a little bit smaller and a bit greyish.
The typical difference you will find in the smaller inflorescense and in the
flower. The petals are more horizontal an deep coloured. I will send you a
picture of.

Best greetings

Olaf

ATTN: ancient paph experts

I have seen sangii plants with greatly varying holotype in leaf
color and mottle. Is there a way to distinguish an unflowered Paph sangii
from Paph sangii f. ayubiianum?  Should I just resign this to 
variability rivaling Neofinetia falcata?

Steve

In case anybody has one (including Australia), that little Home Depot 
Dendrobium Ted Davis x Snowfire has been registered as Memoria Mister
Terrific (a 
lovely brown tabby). I wanted to name it after our Boston terrier, but
Julian 
misunderstood the name.

Subject: [OGD] Modern Phrag Hybrids: Books/Publications? 
From: marianne.fleurimont [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hello evryone, especially Marianne,
also when there is no actual book about the genus and the hybrids of the
genus Phragmipedium, you can find pictures of all species in the spezial
issue of The Orchid Digest Vol 67 (4). There you can find also many pictures
of the modern hybrids with Phragmipedium besseae and others.
Also very interesting for you would be te articles about Phragmipedium
hybrids in the journal of The German Orchid Society 'Die Orchidee'. In the
last years around 15 articles were published with around 200 pictures of the
crosses. The last was published this year in the issue 2 about the new
primary hybrids of besseae, besseae forma flava and dalessandroi. Also an
article about the hybrids with Phrag. fscheri was published.

Best greetings from the now a little bit frozen Bavaria

Reply to Paph. crosses - Orchids Digest, Vol 6, Issue 405

Dear Marty,
there is no cross registered between
Paph. supardii and Paph. praestans
Normally you must look for Paph. glanduliferum, because praestans will
by accepted by Registrar only as glanduliferum.
In the future you can look also at page of the Royal Horticultural
Society
adress is
http://www.rhs.org.uk/research/registration_orchids.asp
