Pretty and it looks like a fairly small growing plant.
What's the appeal of white Phrag flowers for you? Is it the rarity or just a favorite flower color?

It is rather small which is nice- I guess because of the schlimii parent.
I’m actually not a fan of solid white flowers, e.g. Paph delenatii alba, but I really like the very pale phrags that border on white and have a hint of pink or green. They seem to almost glow and the intricacies of their shapes are highlighted by the shadows that are more pronounced due to them being so pale . I am also fond of white and green or white and yellow Paphs, frequently preferring them over their counterparts with color. Not sure why- partially because of the rarity but also because I frequently find them more striking in appearance.

Nice. I wonder if she has another.
Possibly. I purchased this spring.
Beautiful flower.
Nice. Thanks for sharing. There are whiter Phrags on this site.
Which phrag do you consider the whitest? I guess I should have clarified that I was thinking of long-petaled when I made my remark.
I have a Polar Shift ‘Ghostwriter’ and a ‘Shoshone River’ from Bob that seem to be doing well but they are on the small side and haven’t bloomed yet. I’m curious to see how their blooms compare with this one. Polar Shift appears to be just green and white.

It may be a while given its size but you are first in line.hoping this grows vigorously for you and should you ever have a division available i hope to be first in line!
you got what you asked for
I don't really do long petal Phrags. Saint Ouen, Ice Princess is one of the closest to album I have seen. I gave a bunch of light ones in my Miscellaneous Stuff thread.
Love it! I had to settle for a different clone from Marilyn
Did you purchase Silver Eagle ‘Pink Satin’? I saw that on her most recent list. I purchased it last year and posted a photo of it here in August. It’s a beauty in its own right.
That's the one. I'm not unhappy, it's just the exact flower I was hoping for
