Paph. rothschildianum

[Paul]

Well, I definitly can't believe Sam sold me the same cross, and I have already said him in the past. Look at mine:

last bloom was the same...

Just a stunning plant and with the 5 flowers to boot on a single stem. A few more years and the show could be really spectacular.

I actually only like the color of 'knight challenge', but the dorsal is not very good.

What is wrong with the dorsal on 'Knight challenge' ? Looks pretty damn awesome to me

 

[eggshells]

Excellent clone. To me, its perfect.

Class act for sure!

Being hyper critical its a bit cupped, I suppose. Id have a division any day and its offspring look to be of excellent quality.

I'm with you Gary. Based on those photos I actually prefer Knights Challenge to Titanic. It is just a unique incredible looking flower.

Knights challenge

Knights challenge's synsepal appears to be larger/wider then its dorsal. that maybe what's throwing you off Ozpaph

Oh, my!

I was just making a response. I think KC is a great roth but being hypercritical (which was to answer the question posed), the dorsal does cup on some of the photos.

The dorsal is not very "good" (round) if you compare NC to most of the modern clones. I agree that the synsepal appears to be bigger than the dorsal. Dorsal shape and also the shape of the pouch (gets much thinner around the opening) makes this clone very special. So you have to decide if you only want the modern clones with perfect shape or plants with an identity. Sounds weird but I like special plants with special flowers alot!

 

[SlipperKing]

It is special. Both are in fact.

You are lucky and you can have a look of mine!
