Paph ID Lady Isabel??

[Carper]

Hi all,

Was given this as a small seedling 3 years ago and it was labelled Lady Isabel. Very strong plant with 4 flowers and 2 new growths but was just wanting views as to it's ID.

I'd say Saint swithin or Gary romagna

 

[Ozpaph]

I go SS.

No Lady, but a Saint

 

[ehanes7612]

SS my guess

 

[SlipperKing]

I'm throwing in with the St. Swithin group as well and a damn good to Gary.

 

[Wendy]

Agree with all above....SS

 

[Happypaphy7]

Definitely no stonei in this, but it's nice!

 

[Justin]

yep SS. chunky!

 

[SlipperFan]

Nice Saint Swithin. I like the pattern on the dorsal.

 

[emydura]

Quite likely a SS but I'm not sure I would bet my life on it.

 

[Camellkc]

A very nice SS imo.

 

[John M]

I don't think it's L.I. or G.R. I do think it's a nice S.S.

 

[troy]

nice blooming!!

Exactly!
It does look similar to SS, but hybrids can look similar to one another.
NOID is NOID.

NOID is NOID.

Especially if it is a more complex hybrid. We always tend to think of NOID hybrids from the perspective of a primary hybrid. I have a NFS seedling of Susan Booth x St Swithin. I would think a lot of seedlings from that cross would look like this, especially as this flower is darker than most St Swithin's I have seen. To be honest those petals look a lot like my Susan Booth, but it is not that cross. It could be more complex than a St Swithin.

I agree, a NOID is a NOID. I don't think you can be definitive with this.

 

[Happypaphy7]

So true!

 

[Trithor]

Strongly St. Swithin, but as already pointed out a more complex cross cannot be excluded. Stunning bold dorsal markings and good colour, ... Looking good!

Good looking NOID!
