Paph, philippenense.

[phraggy]

A multi growth first flowering plant -- and I think it;s going to get better.5 buds.

 

[Spaph]

Are you sure it is philippinense? Looks like a nice St. Swithin to me?

 

[Denver]

It's very nice but I agree with Spaph. I would say with 99% certainty that it is not a pure philippenense and about a 95% certainty that it is a St. Swithin. But at least it looks to be a nice St. Swithin!

 

[eggshells]

definitely not a pure philippinense. Beautiful flower though. I tend to agree that its an SS.

 

[gego]

A very good form SS

I'm 100% certain it is not a phillipinense. Most likely a St Swithin and a really nice one. Great form and colour on that clone. Cracking dorsal as well.

Saint Swithin or Gary Romagna.

Nice dark petals and good size dorsal.

 

[SlipperFan]

Definitely not the species. Do you know where it came from, Ed?

 

[Camellkc]

A very nice Saint Swithin!

 

[troy]

Very nice swithin!!!! Thick horizontal petals!! Keep it!!!!

 

[John M]

It is wonderful! That synsepal is a mirror image of the dorsal. Wow! :clap::drool:

However, it's definitely NOT philippinense.

 

[SlipperKing]

Not another mislabeled plant! Nice one thou with 5 flowers?

Hi Dot. Got this at the International Orchid Show 2015 at Malvern UK. Bought from KJ Orchids from Denmark, I also bought from him a St Swithin that was in bud. Never had any problems with this vendor who is very good, will be seeing him mid June at the same show so will ask him a question or two!!

Maybe the two plants/labels got switched?

 

[Wendy]

I hope you find out exactly what it is as it sure is nice.

 

[Justin]

Be sure to show him your photo. I suspect he will be as surprised as you are!
