Not bad.

I would't call it a beauty, but it is very special.

 

[Ozpaph]

well flowered, but not to my taste.

I really like it myself. The white dorsal is striking and the flowers present well. They look big too. I expect you will get 5 or 6 flowers on a bigger plant which will look really impressive. A really unique looking multi. Worth a place on the bench IMHO.

I love the exotic look to this one. It's lovely.

One thing with slippers there is something for everyone. I have flowers I don't really like at all and other people love them.

Not particularly colorful or strikingly marked, but the form and presentation are unusually graceful. I would take this over the 3 awarded ones pictured in OrchidWiz. How large are the flowers?

pet tip to tip 8 inch---Dorsal 2 1/2 inch wide.
just looked at the 3 in Orchidwiz and must agree.

I think parishii compliments the stonei in lady isabel, I like it, the only downside is it's a big plant

 

[Ozpaph]

get it judged

That should put it in awardable range given the superior form and presentation.

The only issue may be the flower count which will increase in subsequent flowerings. How many flowers were there on the awarded clones?

 

[SlipperFan]

:drool: Definitely on my wishlist!

 

[paphioboy]

Interesting.. Love it.

One description was for 6 flowers on one spike. Another was 3 flowers and a bud on one spike. The third does not say but the picture shows at least 5. All 3 awards are in New Zealand. Would Australian judges even consider those?

Is it easy to flowers than William Trelease ? It is nice

 

[Redtwist]

It has its own willowy character, which I like a lot. Almost identical to William Trelease x roth which I saw on Facebook recently (and the grower reckoned it was their best multi, so its all personal taste.)

It's interesting and has a clean look to it; better to have orchids that don't all look the same

I expect they would look them up as a guide. It must be a popular cross in NZ.
