I can't grow Paphs either, though I love the small bulldog ones. I have one that's a species, (niveum maybe?), but I'm pretty sure it's all but dead.

I have some mini Oncidiums, (which aren't really Oncidiums anymore, Tolumnia or Rcdm or something along those lines) but they haven't bloomed for me. One is in spike, though, and I can't wait to see it bloom!

I've also got a couple Catts in sheath. The only problem with Orchids is having to wait so long for those flowers! LOL Dendrobium unicum is budding, too, and I can't wait to see and smell those flowers.

Here's a peloric Phal that's blooming. These are new blooms on the old spike from last year, and it also has a new spike. It's impossible to get the correct color on this one. A very light lemon yellow with baby pink. Maybe if we ever get some sunshine I can capture the color better.
