Paphiopedilum Michael Koopowitz x Saint Swithin = Jan Ragan

I love it! But I wonder if it is labeled correctly. It definitely could be but if so that plant hit the genetic jackpot in multiple spots. With the petal, dorsal, and pouch color, I think it might be a second generation gigantifolium hybrid...or maybe even a fairly straight petaled chia Hua dancer.

Interesting....v nice

It's a complex multi, the outcome could be variable, I was looking at it pondering stonei x, but the tag is probably right

It's a beautiful flower. It's mislabelled, though, there's no way that flower is 50% philippinense, not with that lip. It does seem to have some stonei or gigantifiolium and/or sanderianum in it.

 

[paphioland]

gigantifolium in there.

 

[troy]

Stonei x gigantifolium?

 

[fibre]

very well photographed!

Agreed, the white ovaries are suspicious. Whatever it is, it's very good. I just made Chiu Hua Dancer x St Swithin, if they bloom out like this, I will be very happy.

After reading the above comments (and agreeing about having some stonei in it) all I can say is no matter what the parentage it's a very attractive flower.

[troy]

I like it as well!! Whatever it is

nice

Beautiful! I echo stonei/gig influence as a possibility.

Isn't it fun when we pay for mis-labeled plants? :rollhappy:

great flower. Very Hung Shen Eagle-ish

I agree but a beauty

 

[SlipperFan]

Nice flower, but I agree that somewhere in it's history it has stonei and gigantifolium in it. I think phil, also.

 

[Migrant13]

Very nice both flowers and especially photos.

 

[Linus_Cello]

Where is this from?

 

[Wendy]

Gorgeous flower but I too have doubts as to what it is. I see gigantifolium in there.
