Lovely! Curiously, the shape of the flower in the first photo reminds me of Paph. canhii to some extent.

 

[Ozpaph]

intense colouration!

Lovely! Curiously, the shape of the flower in the first photo reminds me of Paph. canhii to some extent.

Interesting observation. I think canhii would look like, "a fly on the pouch" of this GN as sizes go!

 

[Shiva]

Man! I didn't realize canhii was that small.

 

[SlipperKing]

Mr. Canh, himself posted a pic some time back of canhii and esquirolei. Canhii looked as though it could fit inside the pouch of the other!

 

[Shiva]

Thanks for the info Rick. All very interesting.

Very nice Rick. One hybrid I'm still on the lookout for.

 

[Mrs. Paph]

I second what Gilda said!!! Keep the pics coming!

 

[John M]

Very nice! I'll look forward to the final form. I wish mine would bloom for the first time!

[W. Beetus]

Very nice GN! Beautiful color.

 

[SlipperFan]

Great color on this!

 

[SlipperKing]

The color is outrageous to me.

 

[orchideya]

Beautiful dark color! How old is the plant? I read that they don't bloom easy.

 

[SlipperKing]

It first bloomed when it was 12 years old.....still a kid!

 

[Shiva]

That's a very nice one. Twelve years? I'm ok then, mine is only 5 years old.
