He's made some amazing crosses.

Jim -

Bill's presentations are always fun. Besides his fabulous crosses, I love his dry, caustic sense of humor. From what I hear thru the grape vine, he is planning on releasing a whole lot of stuff from his greenhouse to make room for his new crosses. Not sure how he is planning on selling but will keep everyone posted.

Bill has some really nice crosses that don't smell at all. Bulb A-doribil Collin (Bulbophyllum echinolabium X Bulbophyllum Doris Dukes) is another one of my favorites and I don't remember a stench.

Here is a link to one that is owned by Jerry Meola, very nice.

Wow, I really like the curly sepals. I would love to be able to purchase a few of his crosses by the looks of these.

If he ever gets around to putting a sales list together, I'll make sure you get it.

Thanks, Glen ! I'll PASS on the GORGEOUS stinker ! I'm not doing real great with mine, It's still growing but the leaves since I've had it (2) are smaller than what I got it with. Slow grower, 1 leaf per year but has a NG bud right now (or spike, can't tell). I'm putting it under the T5 fixture I'm getting on Monday because I think it needs more light ! We'll see.
