Very nice! You grow in pots Jean?

Oh man. I love these.

Can these be grown in Zone 2B?

 

[mrhappyrotter]

Very cute flower. I like how it's got a strongly contrasting staminode and big toilet bowl lip like malipoense.

Oh man. I love these.

Can these be grown in Zone 2B?

My guess would be yes, though you'd have to bring them to a sheltered protected spot in the winter (heated garage).

Nice. Thanks for sharing.

 

[SlipperFan]

Interesting flower.

A beautiful flower with so many interesting attributes. I love the contrast between the dark staminode and the
wonderful blushing white petals and pouch. Superb!

 

[KyushuCalanthe]

Nice one Jean! Is this the first year flowering?

 

[JeanLux]

Yes, I grow it in pot for the time being! I got that lovely 'plant' from Wenqing 8 weeks ago Tom! The chalenge will be to keep it alive ...

Absolutely stunning!

Quite a strong resemblance to Paph malipoense, yes. Similar pollinators perhaps?

That's what I'm trying to avoid. I'd like to leave them in the ground if at all possible.

I'm collecting species and hybrids that can stay outside and never had to bring them in. So far macranthos, plechtrochilum and japonicums are epic fails.

What about Cypr arietinum?

Thanks I will try that. I can't find any for some reason. I will try guttatum again but this time I will buy in the fall. I think it got too warm in the summer in pot.

Beautiful flower again Jean. Well done and I hope it clumps for you.
