[Hakone]

paphiopedilum micranthum rubrum and micranthum eburneum, from friend ( Germany )

 

[John Boy]

Holy cow!, since when are these stems so short?

Thanks for the picture, I didn't know there was a "dunkel" micrathum!

 

[Hakone]

rubrum ?
Yes, these stems are short

 

[Hugorchids]

wow, didn't even know a dunkel variety exists! looks great, I want one now!

 

[Dido]

great plants
This dark ones are on high prices in asia I heard.

 

[Ozpaph]

can someone cross the 'Dunkle' with a good charlesworthii, please.
That would be interesting.

 

[SlipperKing]

Nice flowers but I think Hakone made the "dunkel" part up.

 

[SelectOrchids]

Two types of Vietnamese micranthum, the one on the right is famous, they are all very dark from those colonies, but never with a good shape. The one on the left is coming from Tuyen Quang ( it is an eburneum type, but not a Kwangsee type).

 

[Paul]

eburneum is my favorite, well done in blooming them!!

 

[Paph_LdyMacBeth]

A great pair!
Bizarre staminode on the "dunkel"

 

[Spaph]

What a duo! The dunkel is quite something!

 

[Mrs. Paph]

Wow, what a color contrast between the two! Thanks for sharing the picture!

 

[NYEric]

The plants grow at Popow another one told me today...

 

[NYEric]

I don't know about micranthum black. Better to make inter-species hybrids!

 

[Hakone]

Has Mr. Popow one or more plants ?

The "dunkel" part of the name is an invention of our taxonomy troll Hakone. On a Chinese website, these plants are being offered as "var red".

Very nice flowers, indeed.
