TIOS Paph/Phrag Photos - Orchid Board

Bolero · #1 03-19-2013, 03:22 AM

Hi all, after assisting with judging of some of the Paph hybrids I took some photos. I felt the quality of the Taiwan International Orchid Show was some of the highest quality plants I have ever seen. They say that TIOS is the best show and the only competition is the Japan Tokyo Grand Prix (which I am yet to see) and I have to say it's the best orchid show I personally have ever had the good fortune to visit or judge at. I will be going every year if I can afford too.

Anyway I will post photos of the various genera, this may occur over several posts so stay tuned for all the photos.

Paph Dragon Charm 'Daya'

My God! What an amazing display. I have a few of those but none of them are in bloom - yet. Fingers crossed that my Tall Tails will soon have a thread of it's own...

Hey Bali isn't bad and it's not really that much further to Taiwan. Although Taiwan isn't really set up yet for tourism. You should have seen the trouble I had trying to find postcards......
