Calanthe vestita.
This series of pics were photographed at the Orchidwood's nursery, Kuching.
Thanks to Au Yong and his family for their hospitality and assistance around
this special lot of orchids.
I am not definite about the identity of some of these species, so do help
out
where you can.
I hope you see other shots of these same plants when Eric and John take the
podium.
Enjoy

Great photo Peter. I would have been chasing that dragonfly around in the
other picture. :)

Reiner - we tried but the bloody thing wouldn't stay still long enough to
get a clear photo!

A great shot Peter & thanks ever so much for sharing your wonderful pictures
of your tour.
I am curious about the mountings they used for the Dendrobiums. What are
they made of?
Do you know?
Cheers Wendy

About 600 photos to get through, Wendy. Will post many of these eventually.
Roy/Wendy,
The mountings in the Au Yong nursery were shafts/poles wrapped with coconut
fibre.
Trivia:- if you're familiar with the novel "Orchid Fever" by Eric Hansen,
you will be able to associate this nurseryman and the story / chapter about
pollen theft at an orchid show.

A delightful collection. This and the Paras are my favorites.

When are you all going to set up the Tour Company? G We want to join
the group for the next tour? You would make wonderful guides.

Will keep that in mind, Sue. We may be going again in 2008. Borneo is very
rich in orchids and has some of the most spectacular species. John and I are
familiar with some hot spots there. It is very affordable relative to other
destinations.
