Paph randsii (New World x CA Dream) First Flowering

Ok there are no words to describe that Paph randy booth 'toki' fcc/ajos (lady isabel x randsii). The person that made that cross is a genius.

Wow! That is amazing! In that case, maybe because of its lack of availability, people have not yet had the opportunity to explore the potential of this parent.

Owner and maybe also breeder is Dr Masahiro Saitoh ....

I would literally commit a felony to get a plant like that; near perfection.

I might just go in the greenhouse right now and try to remake it.

Both of you should store all of the pollen from all the flowers just to offer it to anyone who would like to make a cross because there is so little around. I think it just hasn't been used that often but would be a good parent. I can't see a randsii x sanderianum, randsii x wossner black wings or randsii x anitum turning out bad. I also would like to see what would happen to a randsii x micranthum or gigantifolium. That hybrid with Lady Isabel is ridiculous.

I totally agree!

That Paph Randy Booth is incredible. I'd love to have a plant like that. I do have a lovely clone of Lady Isabel that has a sheath ready although it won't flower until later this year.
