another dark one

[jimspaphs]

Macmauden is a cross of Macabre x Macmauden and has produced Dartagnen and Cherry Glace so far.

 

[SlipperFan]

Nice, also!

 

[Ozpaph]

That's pretty.

Another lovely dark one Jim.

Not quite following that Macmauden is a cross of Macabre x Macmauden?

 

[Justin]

nice. these vini types were all the rage in the US about 10 years ago, but now you almost never see them!!! i wish they would make a comeback.

Also not quite following axb=a
Very good uniform pouch colour with great petals. Dorsal is a bit narrow for my taste.

Macmauden = (Paphiopedilum Macabre x Paphiopedilum Hamana Mauden)

Hamana Mauden = Maudiae X Warden

Warden = Maudiae X Holdenii

Holdenii = Maudiae X callosum

Maudiae = callosum X lawrenceanum


Hope that helps.

Thanks Stephen. Maudiae gets used quite a bit.

With that said, where does the skinny dorsal come from?

 

[Ozpaph]

sukhakulii (in Macabre)

I especially like the contrasting green center, and the dark red stripes on the white dorsal!

????????????????????????

 

[fbrem]

I like that one a lot

 

[Trithor]

????????????????????????

Sorry I know my response was a bit curved. Considering its genetic makeup, it is sad () that the plant inherited a skinny dorsal from sukhakulii, when it just as easily could have inherited a broad Maudiae dorsal. I guess that is the genetic lotto. It could have inherited so many great features or traits from sukhakulii, but landed with a weak dorsal.

 

[Ozpaph]

Now I understand. Thank-you.

I saw this flower, in the flesh, almost black petals and pouch and the dorsal looks wider than it appears in the photo - though not a Maudiae dorsal.

Love the hair!

But look here.
I'm not sure if this is the same plant, but it is the same cross. The shape of the dorsal is way better in this flowering!

 

[jimspaphs]

2 plants of macmauden

Have 2 clones `V5' and`GB1' but the 2 photos are of the same plant `GB1'

But look here.
I'm not sure if this is the same plant, but it is the same cross. The shape of the dorsal is way better in this flowering!

Thanks Jim, interesting variation of the dorsal in the same clone.
