Paph. helenae

[Bud]

I found a Paph. helenae seedling in 2 inches pot at EBay from a grower in CA...at $75 with $10 shipping...these are really that expensive ?!?!
In my frustration, I decided to get a blooming sized Paph. Maudiae Magnificum instead...which was on my prize range....
Now I have 3 Paphs in my collection!

Love this species! In fact, I don't grow Paphs, and this is the only Paph on my wish list!

I saw those - that's way too much to pay. I think I paid about $25.00 for mine as a seedling.

Ron, its nothing but total love for me with this species or any cross comming from the helenae.
Stunning lil paph
These paphs aren't cheap - this will run about 40$ down here and still 2 years from blooming.

I hope to see photos' Terri

Thanks, Gloria. They should become cheaper as they become more available.

Well, everyone be on the lookout!

Forestview Gardens, in BC, had some for sale last year for $25, seedlings. I got one and it bloomed a year after, very nice little plant
I don't think they sell to the US, but you could ask, if they get some more...
BTW they also have P.thaianum now ! (just got one, beautiful little plant too )

This really is a charmer isn't it.

I must admit I wasn't that taken by the example of it I saw at the show last week. Yours looks absolutely gorgeous though!

Ok here's mine. Not the best picture but I was too lazy to set it up nicely. It has a second spike started too.

Well, Ron if you think you can post pictures of flowers like this one and expect all of these accolades over what.... some tiny flower with a perfect bucket and an upright dorsal and nice sepals.... is that what you think????? Well, is it???? Then you'd be right!
