Nop, I like them all. Only problem is space and time, which leads to priorities.
Given enough space and time I will try to grow every single orchid species, and
many non orchids.

Happy Growing.

I don't know if they are ugly, but certainly nothing to look

I finally started reading "The Orchid Thief" recently. Last night I
ran across a passage where she says ". . . and all of them [orchids]
are ugly when they aren't flowering." Obviously an untrue statement.
Well grown, some are very attractive when out of bloom. Paph callosum
comes to mind, and the "jewel orchids" are grown specifically for
their foliage. Most aren't ugly out of bloom, just uninteresting.

But, there certainly are some that aren't very attractive out of
bloom. Anyone have an opinion as to which is the ugliest orchid when
out of bloom, even when it is well grown?
