Default Paph. Golddollar

The first of the 7 Paphs/Phrags I bought at Paramount last month is open. My Golddollar has 3 buds. The flowers are much larger than I thought they would be (about 9 cm X 9 cm). I've seen some terrible offspring from this cross (including the one shown on Paramount's site) so I was reticent to get one. I decided to bite the bullet and lucked into a reasonable-looking specimen.

Great photo Todd!
You even got the fine hairs petals (or are those sepals )
That picture would look great in the calendar!

The pic was not quite big enough for the calender. I've already submitted my 3 pics but I'm not showing them in case I jinx it!
