The first AQ award in Taiwan

[weiyiatosu]

The first AQ in Taiwan was awarded to a Paph. spicerianum cross on Oct. 27, 2009. To my knowledge, it is also the first AQ given to Paph. spicerianum. Enjoy!!

Wow - that's spectacular. The dorsal typically reflexes so much on spicerianum. Thanks for posting the picture.

I miss the typical spicerianum parasol dorsal, but those are a nice group of fat wide flowers.

I miss the typical spicerianum parasol dorsal, but those are a nice group of fat wide flowers.

Sometimes I wonder if the spicerianums that have exceptionally flat dorsals don't have some small amount of another species that flatten out the dorsal that are so dramatically different that the common spicerianum.

I like the look of the flat dorsal but have always wondered.

Is it yours?! If so, congrats! If not, thanx for sharing!

What an amazing amount of variation, especially between the two most front and center. Fascinating to imagine they all came from the same capsule.

Very impessive group of 'spice' !! I like particularely the greenisch one in the very first line. :drool:

Best regards from germany, rudolf

Nice flowers, do you know the parents? To selectively breed a species like this to produce flatter dorsals is a fine accomplishment.

They actually look a lot like Paph Bruno.

Fantastic display - very betiful flowers.

 

[aquacorps]

Is it a hybrid or species?

 

[KyushuCalanthe]

Beautiful! I like the two with the really wide dorsals on the lower right.

OMG... :drool: :drool: :drool:

 

[SelectOrchids]

OH MY GOD !!!!!!!!!!!!!


It's Paphiopedilum Bruno hybrids selfings and crossings, the flowers are typical, so is the variation in color and shape, everyone should know that.

Who are the stupid judges that gave an AQ to that crap ???

If it's a cross, it's not spicerianum.

I agree, it looks just like my Bruno -- which I like a lot, especially since it was my very first orchid.
