[petro]

Another lovely mini from Ross. Got this one as a small plant a few years back. This is its first bloom.

 

[Ozpaph]

very colourful pouch

 

[Markhamite]

Cute little thing. Love the pouch and the halo.

 

[tenman]

The colors are outstanding.

 

[SlipperKing]

Nice colors indeed. How long has it been open?

 

[Erythrone]

What a cutie!!!!!!

 

[Linus_Cello]

Can you take a pic of the whole plant with something for scale (e.g., can of beer)?

 

[Trithor]

Interesting line of breeding. Lovely colouring.

 

[petro]

Thanks for the kind comments, all!

SlipperKing—It had just opened yesterday, when I took the pic, so I think it will open up a bit more. I'll take another in a few days.

Linus_Cello—I'll see what I can do.

Interesting line of breeding. Lovely colouring.

I really do like the coloring on this one, as well. Quoting Ross, below:

Mary Zdilla = exul x Tyke (henryanum x barbigerum) and Little by Little = Doll's Kobold (charlesworthii x henryanum) X Tyke (henryanum x barbigerum)

 

[NYEric]

Interesting. Can you post another photo of it next to something for a size comparison, thanks.

 

[PaphMadMan]

Paph Mary's Little Leopard. Love the contrast between the dorsal and the pouch.

 

[bigleaf]

Very beautiful

 

[SlipperFan]

Interesting coloring. I'm looking forward to the photo of it all the way open.

 

[Ross]

Thanks for posting the photo, Petro. I would also love to see the whole plant if you get the chance. BTW, my avatar is another flower from the same cross

 

[abax]

Lovely flower and I'm looking forward to seeing more photos.

It's been almost a week since it opened, so I wanted to get another shot of the mature bloom. I'm very happy with the form. Color is a bit washed out in this pic due to late afternoon sun. I'm going to take a proper picture tomorrow. For those who asked for a comparison shot, here's a beer for scale. As you can see, it's a nice compact little guy. And since it's Friday and all, I'm now drinking said beer.

 

[The Mutant]

Aw, that's so adorable (not talking about the beer bottle, just so we're all on the same page). :smitten: A really nice little cross.

 

[Clark]

Great flower for the amount of leaves.

 

[PaphMadMan]

So you're saying you don't use the beer as a growth stimulant?
