Paphiopedilum fairrieanum family

[Djthomp28]

I have a few fairrieanum in bud right now. Most from different parents. So, I will post them on the same thread as they open.

This is the first successful seedling to open from a 2019 flask. My understanding is that the flask was abandoned with Orchid Zone closed. The parents were 'BRR' x 'Pink Perfect'. I don't have many left. I sold some and some self selected out. I am anxiously awaiting the ones I have left.

I want to complain that it took me so long to see one of these successfully bloom. However, these seedlings have seen a lot and kept up the pace. One attempted to bloom last year but the bloom did not make it. All of the ups and downs make this cutie more exciting.

Has always been very special to me! Kind of cute and cuddly if you know what I mean? The color you show is quite impressive!!

Gorgeous flower and it seems to be quite big.

.....I sold some and some self selected out. ......

These are pretty word to describe a sad problem.
