    Default My paph collection as of 8.21.11

    I have all the ids on these, but I just can't deal with getting them all down right now, so please, just enjoy the photos. I'm very proud of some of these - paphs seem to be my strongest suit.

    Default And even MORE paphs!

    The ones in bud are replacements; the others are just from the collection and are at their best right now.

    You have such a nice collection. These are so pretty - even when not in bloom, the leaves are gorgeous.

    I have them all and will be happy to post them when I have a chance. I'm working on both repotting, and cataloguing my collection - so I'm pretty well over-occupied right now.
