Paph. godefroyae x tigrinum first-bloomer

[Roy]

oh my god!!! I want it!

That is amazing, Roy and I will be fighting for them if they get here....lol.

The enquiries are flowing.

 

[SlipperKing]

Odd but amazing flower! When I opened this thread I got hit with the WOW! factor. I wonder what they'll name this cross?

 

[Fabrice]

oooohhhh! very interesting hybrid!!! I like it!!!

 

[Elena]

Very cool. Two of my favourite species mixed together and I rather like the result. Great spots and the clear pouch is nice.

 

[Ed M]

Thanks all.

I think the breeder must have used Paph. godefroyae var. leucochilum as the pod parent, how else would the pouch come out clear of any spotting, or tan blush from the tigrinum?

 

[goldenrose]

Spectacular!
Who made the cross?

oke:

This is a first-bloom seedling of Paph. godefroyae x tigrinum, bred by Paphanatics, but sold to me by Orchidbabies.

 

[NYEric]

Heeheehee!
It should be called Paph Jade Leopard or something.

 

[Candace]

That's really nice, Ed. I think I've got one of these that's close to blooming size, too.

 

[Ed M]

Thanks Candace, and its nice to have photos that "stay put", isn't it? :evil: :rollhappy:

 

[pdxpaphguy]

Thats a pretty cool looking primary. Congrats!

Yes, it is!

Wow...That is an amazing flower! What I like is that it looks so different compared to everything else what is out there. I have done some tigrinum hybrids myself, and I have noticed that just like the pure Paph. tigrinum they have a very hard time growing in the lab, and that is probably why you do not see to many hybrids made with this species out there. I have finally been able to get some pure tigrinum's growing, so hopefully I can use the same procedure on the hyrbrids. We have some tigrinum's in bloom at the moment, so seeing this cross, makes me want to go take out the toothpick and make some more brachy/tigrinum crosses...

That is stunning. Makes me all the more angry that my tigrinum x delenatii always blooms pouchless!

 

[TADD]

I really like it and agree with Eric! Very different!

That is stunning. Makes me all the more angry that my tigrinum x delenatii always blooms pouchless!

If you don't like your pouchless tigrinum x delenatii I'll give it a home.

What took you so long?

 

[paphioboy]

Really great spotting n colouring.. but personally, I would like it better if the pouch was larger...
