Paphiopedilum Fumi's Delight 'Vaso' AM/AOC

[Bolero]

Hi,

This is a different plant to the other Fumi's Delight in the Paph thread I just posted earlier today. I received an AM (80 points) for this plant nearly 2 weeks ago and it's a fantastic flowering. It has taken me 5 years to flower and the AM made it worth the wait, although I am just happy with the flower, I named it after my wife:

Very well done.
The size of the flower compared to the plant is unbelievable!
If your wife is half as beautiful as the flower she must be gorgeous.

Excellent bloom! I love it!
The shot with the whole plant is hilarious -> look at the size of that bloom!!!

Well done, it is a very well balanced flower showing the best of both parents.

First of all - that is gorgeous! Amazing to see such a small plant flowering so big! One thing to watch out for (and I'm sure you're aware of this) is to not let the little guy bloom itself to death. I would consider cutting the bloom as soon as possible so the plant doesn't get too weak supporting it.
