Paphiopedilum Gina’s Child

(Gina Short ‘White Queen x rothschildianum ‘Dominant’)



had another bud that blasted and this one shot off from the side of it.. very nice fuzzy flower that tickles your nose..Hasnt opened fully but very interesting indeed..

Very pretty, hadn't seen this one before, are those red freckles? Do you know what caused the bud blast?
Thanks for sharing

[RJSquirrel]

yes little red purple spots indeed and with a purple blush all around..the bud blast was caused by getting water on it I think... brought it in and was more careful. has some pre mature aging on it already...its one of the cardboardish textured kind of flowers..they get any water or moisture on them and they just seem to blast very easy thanks you!!

How beautiful! I like fuzzy Paphs. Nice pouch on this one, it's so round and white! What's that other Paph in the background? Your Honey cross?

[Susie11]

Pretty paph.

yes I like fuzzy lady slipper flowers that tickle ya nose.

and yah thats my honey addict..they were going to do aerial battles but they refused bec one has a broken wing and the others cockpit is closed

thanks you all.

Its such a cute flower from the Pinocchio x delenatii parents on the Gina Short side...The roth 'dominant' didnt do much for the flowers IMO. Made a small round dorsal and some striping but I think the roth in the plant didnt have the desired effect overall that mister wood had hoped for.

workin buds next is a Paph Tom Fujiwara which is Paph. Delrosi which is (P. rothschildianum X P. delenatii) and backcrossed again with P. delenatii..I get a double dose of fuzz and maybe more bigger better flowers

Very pretty!

I like it. It's not my favorite but it's still very pretty.

thanks you all..maybe next bloom the dorsal might open up and give us some flare out of the plant..Its nice but the shape is rather oddly out of scale of the dorsal with the rest of the flower. the pouch more suits the petal size. you have to be more particular with hybrids and see them for what they are and only hope for what they can be
