There are currently blooming...

[HorstP]

I would like to introduce you to a few of my currently flowering Paphiopediles. First is Paph. Hanna Cramer (Paph. Nathaniel's Clarity x fairrianum), further Paph. venustum, Paph. javanicum var. virens and Paph. fairrieanum.

Love the virens. Not often seen anymore!

 

[Greenpaph]

They are all great! Not a bad looking fairy!

 

[abax]

Love that fancy fairy.

The dark colouration makes for a very striking dorsal sepal on the fairrieanum

Horst, you show here lovely flowers extremely well photographed. Kudos
Though my heart beats faster with true species, therefore photos 2 - 4 are my favorits.....the P. virens isn't seen often here and the P. fairrie is a stunner....I'm not completely agaist hybrids, especially when they are as nice as yours here.

Good stuff and great PICs

 

[HorstP]

Thank you for your comments. Due to the proximity to a large orchid farm that cultivates complex hybrids on 10000 m², my first Paphiopediles were exclusively hybrids. In the meantime I collect only horticulturally cultivated wild forms, primarily from the section Barbata and Paphiopedilum.

Beautifull display, Horst!

I think my personal favourite is the very, very well coloured jav. var. virens, if I hard pressed had to choose one!

Maybe the second flower will look better. Mine is still a baby I can only drool over a mature specimen.

Hello Justin,
because of the color I like your Paph. fairrieanum better. Also that it produces two flowers on the inflorescens. With me it is the other way around. There Paph. Hanna Cramer has two flowers on one inflorescens.

 

[Ozpaph]

very nice virens.
Fairrie hybrids have a lovely character about them; especially the pinks.

HorstP where perchance did you purchase the virens?
