I think I will have to inspect them closely to make sure you did ok. If there are any tiny defects I will let you know and spare you the burden of keeping the grotesque misshapen thing. PM me for my address so as you can send them to me ASAP.

You certainly did well in the Paph department.

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

Great list!  I can't imagine what that P. micranthum x P. superbiens will look like!
Den. cuthbertsonii can come in many colors, like pink, orange, yellow, white, purple, and combinations of those colors. The most typical is red, but I think the most showy and attractive!
