Paph. Lady Isobel

[Nickp]

Here's my Lady Isobel, currently flowering. Too bad the two inflorescences are facing in different directions.

The plant came from SVO, but it had a Krull-Smith tag. The cross is listed as P. stonei 'Krull-Smith' x P. rothschildianum 'Pleces' AM/AOS. Can't find anything about the roth clone on the web.

What a Beauty!

That is an exceptional clone. The flowers look big and great dorsal. It is a pity most of the flowers are facing the opposite way.

Probably 'Pisces' AM/AOS.
Lovely flat dorsal. Great clone.

Thanks, that makes sense. I was really scratching my head over “Pleces”

Fantastic. Wonderful flower and plant size. Mine has not bloomed for years. I get to enjoy yours in pics.

Beautifully grown Lady Isabel!

That looks exceptionally good. Well done.

Very nice…
I have one of these, different parents, small when I got it. I think I’m still one to two years from blooming.

Wow!!!!!

I was looking for a less oggling, public way to do this... but here goes...

If you ever decide to divide, sell, trade a part of this plant, please include me in your list... I have a few lady isobels I thought were the sh%t until I saw yours... love the strong stonei influence in the dorsal with all the nice roth shapeliness... killer...

Thanx for posting

Gorgeous! Possibly awardable, though the standard for the cross is very high.

Wonderful dorsal....and the petals both broad and long!

Currently, my plan is to grow it into a specimen, but I’ll keep your suggestion in mind—sometimes paphs just fall apart into divisions, despite my best efforys
