Default Paph Saint Swithin

Another first bloom seedling made with very good parents Paph Saint Swithin (Paph roebelinii X Paph rothschildianum 'Crystelle' FCC/AOS. I love the bright color of the dorsal sepal that it got from the roebelinii parent. I wish the petals had more length to them but who knows what it may produce on it's second blooming. Definitely a keeper.
