Paph Sumurun, another oldie

[SlipperKing]

Paph Sumurun 'Snowball' (Boltonii X Christopher) has been a round for a long time. The hybridzer and date of the cross is recorded as unknown. P. Christopher made in 1902 and P. Boltonii made in 1909 (of unknown parents) indicates Sumurun wasn't made before 1909 anyway! P. Sumurun was used 15 times as a parent, mostly in the 50's and early 60's with the last recorded cross in 1982.
I wouldn't say she is as white as a snowball but it could of been the whitest one from the cross. I can it's older then me! (by a little)

very nice one Rick!!! Will it turn still more white or will the yellow last (I did experience with my Phips that the flower went almost completely white, while having creamy yellow in it when opening =>http://www.slippertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=9836). Jean
