Roth time!

[tnyr5]

As I expected, not as big as last time, but not that much smaller, either. Part of the small spread is a slightly more downswept stance this time. NS 26cm, Petals 1.65 x 15cm, Dorsal width 6.1cm

Looks quite balance where synsepal matches the dorsal. Very nice.

Nice outcome, even if slightly smaller than the first blooming.

Friend, upon seeing roth pic: "It looks like a Pelican flying towards me"

Me: Oooo that's its name now: Paph rothschildianum 'Beware the Pelican'

 

[tnyr5]

Grew enough to deserve a new pic. Spread hit 28cm, dorsal 6.3cm.

Very well balance form and good color.

There you go! Very nice roth indeed.

A roth in all its splendor, is one of, if not the most majestic flowers in the Orchidacea kingdom, this looks like a good one and first bloom.

That is a magnificent clone. Great colour, good size and lovely presentation. It has it all. And it only going to get better.

Well done! I am kind of surprised it didn't get pulled for judging.

 

[NEslipper]

Congrats, it’s stunning!
