Kind of cheating, they arrived from Hawaii in bud or bloom. 10 5" pots, most have at least two flowers. They were in the box for a week since I didn't know they were coming. Not bad. Tag says Paph. villosum "Chuck's Warrior" AM/AOS x self

I’m assuming these came from Lee and company, correct? If so I think the tag also reads x self. Mine has extra wide pedals and dorsal, do these?
Yes. I meant to put x self in the initial post... I'll fix it. I presume (but am not sure) that the selfing was made by Chuck Acker and Lee bought some flasks.

I don't see many villosum so I don't have a good mental image of what good ones look like, but they seem quite large and I like the color. Some are a bit wonky but that might be from the box. I'll pick out the best one of the group to bloom again and try to sell the rest. No shows until the end of January, of course...
