Paph. Susan Booth (rothschildianum ‘Chas. E.’ FCC/AOS x praestans ‘Knob Creek’ HCC/AOS) -- I've not ever gotten more than 3 flowers on this plant. :(



Paph. Mount Sander (Mount Toro x sanderianum)



And my favorite multifloral hybrid, at least in terms of color, Paph. Stoned Berenice (Berenice x stonei):

 
These are all beautiful, and very well grown!

My favorite of the bunch is the Mount Sander, but that's probably more to do with the fact that Mt. Toro holds a special place in my heart.
 
They are all nice but the Mount Sanders is really wonderful and a bit different. The petals look long. How long actually are they Dot? I really like The Susan Booth as well. Really bold imposing flowers. That is a nice clone. I've never got more than 3 on mine either Dot.
 
They are fantastic! The Stoned Berenice is not as imposing as the rest, but the delicate colours in a multi make it all the more special.

Lovely flowers, well grown plants and outstnding photos - what a show.
Not sure which I love best - but I think it's the Mount Sander, yes it is !
 
That Stoned Berenice is sweet. Really liking the pinks throughout the flowers. Is this the first blooming? I think more flowers should come on as the plant grows up.
Same here on the Susan Booth Dot. My awarded plant max out at 3 but the other clone made 4 after I had divided it! Go figure?:crazy:

I'm in love again....Mount Sander:drool::smitten:

Not sure if they are done growing yet, but right now, the longest is 14.5 inches.

Good to know that 3 seems to be the norm For Susan Booth.

It's the second blooming for this plant of Stoned Berenice. I have another in spike that has more flowers. I hope to photograph it soon.

When I divide it, Rick...
 
I'm usually not so enthusiastic over sanderianum hybrids, they often look somehow messy. But the Mount Sander is very appealing. Great flower count too. Nothing wrong with Susan Booth, and I do love the Stoned Bernice.
 
All stunning blooms Dot. I do like the Susan Booth, as I prefer the roth stance. Really colourful and healthy plants you have there.

I Love the Stoned Berenice! The name is hilarious, and the flower is just gorgeous. :smitten:
 
I simply love the second one! Dot, you know of any pink, longer petalled paphs? Kind of like Phrag. Sendenii or Phrag. China Dragon...
