Paph. Michael Koopowitz x gigantifolium

[ehanes7612]

Hmm, I have had five supardii and they were all narrow leaves like roths, but I never bloomed them so I actually don't know for sure...but still, gig hybrids tend to be wide leaved

That's very nice.

Too cold to ship in Europe at this time of year and also to rely on delivery services otherwise I would have it ---- at the right price!!!!!Ed

Forget this guy, would you ship it to the USA?

 

[ehanes7612]

..... I'd love to give it to you if there was a way

such is life

 

[ehanes7612]

That's very nice.

you know it's good when Eric wants it

 

[NYEric]

This is true, when it comes to multis!

 

[troy]

Sanderianums have wide thick leaves, some of my hybrids have 3 inch wide leaves, in comparison these are thin

 

[polyantha]

That's very nice.

Yes. I check how much cites costs and then I will tell you. Or phraggy takes it. Or someone else. We will see.

Forget me??? shame on you Eric!!!This looks,to me, like a cross between stonei x praestans known as Yellow Tiger which is available from Roellke Orchids Germany flowering size for just 17.50 euros.

It's really nice. My type of multi!

 

[troy]

It definitely has sandy in it, I don't beleive it is just praestans x stonei

 

[Ozpaph]

I don't beleive it is just praestans x stonei

???????????

 

[troy]

One of Preastans hybrid traits are very small shoulders and twisty petals, shrinks the plant size, praestans plant grows small fleshy leaves, a good trait is it darkens the flower but reduces the flower count

 

[Ozpaph]

But there's no praestans in this hybrid.................or have I missed something????

I think the tag's right. It's an outlier, to be sure, but I def see sandy, gig, & phil in there. Look close and you can see some red in the petals. Gig dominated the dorsal color & untwisted the petals but didn't dominate enough to curl them tightly, phil washed out the pouch, sandy added length to the petals & influenced the dorsal.

The photos on the website look like Yellow Tiger. I dont think this flower looks similar.

I agree with you Stephen.
