Paphiopedilum Fairrcanh ‘Memories of Japan’

[DrLeslieEe]

A gift from Japan that blooms 2-3 times a year due to its prolific growths. Medium size plant with canhii inspired flowers. It’s a cross of fairrieanum x canhii, registered in 2019 by Olaf Gruss. NS 8 cm.



Grown low light in warm to intermediate conditions, water regularly with no rest period.

There’s a little appendage sticking out from the lower right petal that I’ve not seen happen before. Might be just a petal formation hiccup. Or just giving me a finger lol.

thats a very pleasing mix of the parents.
The fairrie is pretty dominant for plant size.

Very cute!
I love what I call 'watermelon Paphs'. Those with red, green and white. I like everything about it. Compact size, pleasing pouch, nice broad dorsal and cool looking petals!! What is not to like???

Very beautiful.

Is this multiple bloom per year habit unique to this plant or cross or is it typical of canhii hybrids?

Hmmmm not sure re the blooming frequency of canhii hybrids. I might ask Mr Canh in his BPS talk this weekend.

Tell him (X Canh) I should have a present for him next year.

.......The fairrie is pretty dominant for plant size.

....and partially the shape of the flower, the rest is pure P. canhii.
