Paphiopedilum jackii

[P.K.Hansen]

I would love this one to open a bit more, but it seems to have stopped.

Cute and not often seen. Is this a fragrant clone? Do you find this needs any different care than a typical malipoense?

 

[Ozpaph]

I love the 'grumpy old man' chin

Love this subspecies! Very cool.

 

[P.K.Hansen]

It is fragant. I treat it like all my paphs from that family

Thanks for sharing.

It's nicely coloured...love the little streaks/speckles of red!

What is the scent like? And, Per, what happened to the rest of the plant?

Kind regards,
Jens

I love their leaves!

 

[P.K.Hansen]

I wondered where you were Jens
I'm sick, but your toto-shot will be here soon.

 

[Guldal]

Well, I've been bedridden with a minor ailment, too, now slowly recovering, but tired as an ol' folks home (a literal translation from a danish idiom, I know... but it's a rather precise description of my state at present).

I hope our fellow paphioholics will bear with me, as I switch to danish, wishing you: God Bedring!

Kind regards, Jens

 

[P.K.Hansen]

Here you go.
Not the prettiest plant, but it's doing okay.

 

[Guldal]

Very nice! And hope you are feeling better?

Kind regards,
Jens

Amazing! I’m always surprised by the stem length.

P. malipoense var. jackii looks alway a slightly special to me because it's proportions are a bit uncommon. But this one is nice.
