    That is a stunning bloom. And your english is really quite good. A few small items that could be written differently, but overall, quite wonderful. I made a couple notes below:

    "I am happy to present to you paph anitum"
    "I wrote a small article about my vision of anitum"
    "If you have the time, I would appreciate it if you would correct any errors in my english, and any wrong information. For example, I am searching for accurate information about the legend of the black orchid. I've read several stories, but I do not know which is right."

    lebouc, you do such a beautiful job in your article, any errors in grammer don't matter. Wonderful, and good growing!!!

    Gorgeous! And believe me, we love your English. I write to my daughter-in-laws parents in French, I know I make mistakes , but they appreciate the effort, and we're all interested in orchids, you mustn't feel embarrassed. Judi

    Truly magnificent colouration!!! One of the definite wish list plants! By the way, I love the photograph of the flower in 'natural' light in your article, the photograph with the garden in the background.

    So about the article, my french is very bad but here goes:-

    In my opinion this plant is a fascinating, botanic rarity. It is an endemic species from the 'etranges'(?) forests of Mindanao, Philippines.

    This plant is a little 'delicat'(=difficult?) to cultivate if it meets with phytosanitary treatment.

    anitum colour flower is darker.



    Thank you Philippe for this wonderful picture and website.


    Cheers
    Tim (aka Pop)

    Thank you very much for your help, Diane, Tim and every people....

    I will up to date this web page with your comment Tim.

    As you say, natural light makes better photos butit's a little bit cold now in outdoors and the wind make it difficult to do a lot of photos.

    But i will make more picture outside...
