nice pink blush and lovely 'pouch effect'.
A beaut!
How fast to develop from sheath?
Still waiting for my two to get the memo.

It is fragrant now... but I could not detect any when it just opened(~five days ago)
What an excellent question! Nice, they are hard to bloom. Thanks for sharing.
Really endearing!

Thank you all.
It is much bigger than I would have expected. Not sure it is the norm for that cross(batch), hopefully "Silence??"(the member whom I bought it from) would tell us about the size of his flower.
Very interesting pouch!
Wonderful. Loving the pink flush. Thank you for showing the whole plant!

The flower has developed a little bit more after I posted the photo. The flower is a bit flatter and bigger, 5.5" wide/NS(~15cm) as of Jan. 12, petal width is larger too. I think it has completely developed now.
Please take updated pic?

Here you go but I don't think the pictures have captured the flower form this time...
I like it... the petals hold horizontal very well. Great for breeding on this trait.

Thank you all.
I like it too....The flower is far better in person. For some reason(shooting angle), the photos show some imbalance of the flower, which they are hardly noticed in person.

Beautiful! Especially the colours. Some day I will have one, too.
Years ago I bought one, unfortunately it was my second Paph, at a time when I still was busy to kill Cattleyas. So I confess, its death is probably on me, too.
