OS Meeting Pic 3: Phrag. Hanne Popow

Phrag. Hanne Popow (besseae x schlimii) is one of my favorite orchids, and I was very fortunate to see it on display at the last OS meeting. What a fantastic speciman! It had at least 10 spikes open! Quite compact, too.

As for the judging at this mini-show:

The Phrag longifolium var. gracile won "Best Phragmipedium" and this Hanne Popow won "Best Culture". The Armeni-white wasn't a winner; the "Best Paphiopedilum" was Paph. Doll's Kobold 'Sweet Grass', which I unfortunately do not have a pic of.
