Joy Re: Vanilla Orchid

Oh, I thought finders, keepers? Cites1, what Cites?
The closest I got to Masdevallias and Dracula was a book I bought. Somehow, no one brought them into M'sia. I like them alot, they are like the equivalent to our tropical Bulbophyllums except some of the bulbos have huge flowers..

Ok, I want to show some of the foliage orchids from here. I am a big sucker for nice leaves. All pix are plants in my collection.

Paphiopedilum lawrenceanum - This is the reason why I fell in total love with paphs!


Bulbophyllum reticulatum - This is more of a terrestial found growing on the litter of the forest. It has pretty nice red colored flowers.


Collabium simplex - Another terrestial with small white flowers. The leaf surface is velvety.


Goodyera hispida - Small terrestial from the Jewel Orchid family.


Macodes petola - Super Jewel Orchid with a thick velvet leaf and gold veins.
