Default Sad news, good news and questions all in one message

Hello again Peter, I would like to get back to your questions.
For picture research, try using Google & click on images but you must have
the correct spelling.
Paphiopedilum KingArthur
http://hjem.get2net.dk/arne_larsen1/...r%2072-18w.jpg
Paphiopedilum gratrixianum
There are lots of photos.
Does your Bulbophyllum have another name?
You have Akerne-orchids in Belgium you could probably get culture info from
them.
Also Botanical Gardens of Belgium on the net.
Hope this helps.
Cheers Wendy

First the sad news.
* Today my first ever Bulbophyllum died. Leaving me only one which doesn't
seem to want to grow
* Secondly I am about to become an uncle. That's the good news. I

think!!!!
Most children seem afraid of mee because I so big. (hight 1,93m.)

Now to the questions:
*I bought 2 paph's this week: A paph. King Arthur and a paph

grattrixianum.
I bought them for just ?17.
For some time now I have been making a file and looking for pictures of my
orchids to but in it until I can make my own pic's. Using books, asking
permision on the net, friends ...
But I can't find one of these 2 plants, so if anyone could help me

please???
I'm not going to publisch anything, I just use the file to look up what

the
flowers look like, pests they've had...

* Also I fell in love with an orchid last Christmas. A thelymitra

variegata
208 and 199 from Australia. If there has ever been an orchid with a

perfect
colour it must be a Thelymitra. If I could just live in Australia!!!!!
I found the pic's on the orchid mall. Now ever sinds I have contacted
several growers in Europe and one in Australia. But none of them has ever
had or seen this orchid. Please if anyone knows were I might be able to

find
one without braking any laws, tell me, please, please, please.

To end this with a piece of advice to all the men out there. An orchid is
like a great woman. Beauty on the outside and the inside, and when you

find
the perfect one, you can never let them go.

Peter
