Paphiopedilum Rothschildianum

[dusty265]

Hello,

I was watering today and though this may be a question to pose to the forum. For 20+ years I have been growing Paph’s And it’s Paphiopedilum Rothschildianum that has had my main interest over those years. I can’t think of a Cross that I have not had or do not currently have in my collection.

So here is my question to all the would be Roth fans out here. For me my Charles E X Borneo is by far the best in the class for ease of growing, To get them to flower is another storey all until its self. Both of my Charles E X Borneo I have had sense the mid to late 80’s So there a very mature plant.

When I compare the flowers to what is currently out there I see so much of the Old cross’s in the new stuff it amazes me.

If you have had long term Roth’s that you can add to this please do. What cross do you prefer and which gives you the best for plant growth and ease of flowering.


Again Old cross’s are fine as I have more interest in them.


Thank you
