Paphiopedilum charlesworthii forma sandowiae

[Djthomp28]

Paphiopedilum charlesworthii forma sandowiae from Hillsview breeding ('Nuthatch' CCM/AOS x 'Chickadee'). I bought these as a compot a while ago, and a few people on the forum have sibs of this cross.

Very nice! How long did it take to get them to blooming size?

 

[Djthomp28]

I purchased these as small seedlings in a compot. I think it was just under two years to reach blooming size and actually bloom. The first year was slow but they took off that second year
