Paph. Fajen's Fiesta

[littlefrog]

Awarded at Judging in Ann Arbor today. 'Littlefrog Fantasy', AM/AOS. I think 85 points? Maybe 86? Only have had one bloom so far (I have many seedlings), but I think this is the plant I will keep. If they get better than this I'll be impressed and grateful that I got all of the ones that Orchid Inn had left... Much better than I expected it to turn out.

Fajen's Fiesta is moquettianum x henryanum. Google Lens thinks it is a henryanum... It is actually a bit chunkier and may give me two or three flowers.

Here is my image of the same flower! I thought it would be a no brainer that Fajen’s Fiesta would get awarded! It was gorgeous. I submitted this because I thought it had richer color then Rob’s image shows.
Congrats Rob! She was a beauty!

Lovely! A moquette shaped pouch with henryanum coloration throughout.

Nice! Yes, I hope the actual AOS photo captures the color better. I just did a quick snap with my phone...

I saw you take an image.
Not all phones capture the same image with the same quality. But that is something that we do not need to get into.
