Two paphs starting blooming

They are not fully opened yet, but already pretty.
Paph armeniacum and Paph micranthum:



I will update pictures when they will open completely.






Still waiting on malipoense, bellatulum and emersonii buds.

Very nice!

fascinating to look at...the festive colors are striking...beautiful dark green mottled leaves. Good growing.

What a nice staminode on the micranthum. Good growing on both!

Bill

Thank you for the complements everybody!
I really like parvisepalum paphs. Next weekend my parvi collection will expand: I am getting NBS Fanaticum and BS Magic Lanthern from Glen Decker. I am also getting a seedling of sanderianum, but that will take years and years before blooming.

I was thinking about getting one of those sandy seedlings also. Could you post a picture when you get it?

Bill

Yes, I will post pictures of the whole haul, I will be picking up quite a few pre-ordered plants from the show
I should probably mention that I am getting a 10-12 " sized seedling for $49.95 since he was out of 5-6 " at $29.95 that is listed on the website.
I also really like Paph. stonei but it seems to be a hard-to-find one, at least here in Canada

You are doing a much better job than I am doing. They are great looking plants and flowers. Congratulations! Paphs just don't seem to be my forte.

Thank you!
I think they are fully opened now and micranthums pouch grew soooo much more, that it is bigger than armeniacums and looks like a huge inflated baloon.
