(adductum x sanderianum)

This is a hard one to photograph. The petals are about a foot long (30 cm)

In the last pic, I tried to show the beautiful mottling inside the pouch. I hope it gives an idea. Flower is quite dark.

First time flowering.

This clone appears to have the anitum variety of adductum giving it great color and size. The plant, itself, appears to have more of the sandie influence. What I'm trying to say is; when looking at unbloomed plants look for the characteristic of the influence you what in the flower. Such as, if you want long petals, look for plants that show more sanderianum characteristics. You'll have a better chance of getting what you're looking for.
 
Very impressive, Michel!
It is not a cross I would think I would be drawn too, but it has great presentation.
Congrats!
