Another seedling Paph

[Roy]

In Charm Pearl = (wenshanense x (leucochilum x White Knight))
2 doses of brachys I would have expected a much rounder flower. White Knight isn't a consistient parent for round flowers. I've seen this in seedlings I purchased too. A bit of a disappointment.

Leo, I totally agree. I looked at these on the In-Charm website and thought there may be some worthwhile clones to have BUT there are disappointing.
The color change doesn't worry me as I prefer the whiter color. I noticed also that these aren't the best of growers either.
It might be interesting to cross this back onto a concolor or niveum to retain the basic Brachy style and improving the shape and spotting effect plus a possible color boost. What do you think??

Members were interested in whether or not the flower would whiten up after it had been out for a while, well here is a pic I took today of this seedling. Not only has the color changed but also the shape.

The above pic was taken 2 weeks ago, this pic was taken 10 mins ago to show the color change again.

Interesting colour change, Roy...

An interesting change of events Roy. The overall shape must be a recessive trait coming out of the White Knight grandparent.

Well if you don't like it send it to me because I do like it. I think it has gotten better and better.
