Here are some recent acquisitions that were fairly hard to find... I enjoy collecting several cultivars of the same species. Post your cultivar if you have one!

Love those chantinii hybrids, especially 'Samurai', 'Shogun', 'De Leon' and 'Silver Top' is especially spectacular. Thanks for all the great pix!

Really nice JD. I have a lot of these & your pics are helping me re-ID them. I didn't record all the names as I acquired them. I gotta keep better records.
