This plant will make a nice display plant in the future.  4 inch pot $ 25

Paph sanderianum - These seedlings are from about a dozen seed pods, each size group is likely from a different seed pod, as seed pods matured at different times. The parents are divisions of 7 different jungle collected clones from the nursery owned by Au Yip, of Kuching. They were imported in the late 1990's with proper CITES paperwork. They now reside in several different private collections, several were sold after pods were harvested, so ownership has changed hands since the crosses were made. None have been shown yet, none have had published photos. So really these clones of sanderianum don't have public names. One parent that was used most often had 31 inch petals and was truly magnificent. All the crosses used "31 inches" as either pod or pollen parent. That clone has since died. When the flasks were sent out to a wholesale contract grower, the grower was not given the flask numbers. Now there is no way to know which plant came from which flask. I can guarantee they will be good, true to type sanderianum. But there are no specific names on them. This is a good way to pick up some sanderianum that are different from the seedlings coming from the handful of named clones from the west coast.

  $15 to $150
  Paph sanderianum - blooming size, leaf span over 14 inches, very likely to bloom within one year. Shipped in pot. Out of Stock for Now $ 150
  Paph sanderianum - seedling size 5 to 10 inch leaf span, dug up from community pot, shipped bare root. This is a great deal. Good supply. shipped bare root $ 15 each
  Paph sanderianum - seedlings established in 2.5 inch pots, leaf span 5 to 10 inches, shipped in pot, likely 3 to 5 years to bloom.  Out of Stock for now $20
  Paph Florento (kolopakingii var. topperi x chamberlianianum) - a multifloral Paph with flowers that resemble Transvaal only a bit smaller. Paph chamberlainianum is the species some call Paph victoria-regina, but I choose to agree with Guido Braem, so I prefer to use chamberlainianum as the valid name. Hybrids with topperi tend to have high flower counts. They start blooming young, but do mature out as large plants. Seedlings with leaf spans over 9 inches, 4 or 5 inch pots,  limited, inquire $30
Paph Jurgen Roth (kolopakingii var. topperi x primulinum) - a multifloral Paph with flowers more like Prime Child, the yellow form of primulinum was used. Again going for high flower counts. Seedlings with leaf spans over 9 inches, 4 inch pots, limited inquire $30
       
  Paph. Battle of Egypt 'Alpha' FCC/RHS, AM/AOS - offering of a one growth division of this antique classic. This makes a spectacular display specimen as a multi-growth plant.    $ 125

  Description   Price
Ficus species Chiapas Strangler Fig species name has not been determined. This is an uncommon cultivar of Ficus that is ideal for Bonsai. It makes aerial roots more easily than most. It is one of the 'Strangler Figs'. Original cuttings were imported from the garden of Sterling Dickenson, San Cristobal, Mexico. This plant has been in development since 1994. The trunk is thick with a number of aerial roots, some fused to the main caudex. This makes for an interesting look. The plant is 18 inches tall with three upright trunks. The price is less than $ 25 per year that I have been caring for and styling this potentially high quality future bonsai. There are a lot of design possibilities here. This tree could be in exhibition form in less than 5 years. 12 inch round

mica & resin pot
