New Paph micranthum

[Rick]

Got this in low bud from Sam Tsui at the ISOS meeting in early November.
This seems like an extra big flower. The pouch is ~9cm long, and the petals are 5X4cm.



It's only a single growth plant, so hopefully it will get some new stolons going soon. I picked up a second plant that has chosen not to spike, and is just starting a new growth.

nice. not sure if you are interested in sib pollen since your plant is single growth but if so just let me know.

That is a monster sized pouch. Good one for sure.

I think it will like the basket

Very nice; what are the measurements?

I think it has pretty good balance of the elements. The pouch is ~9cm long, and the petals are 5cm X 4cm. Not a record I'm sure but at the upper end of the type description.

Huge pouch, will be fun to see stolons popping out the basket in a while!
