My favorite green complex flower drops...
Default My favorite green complex flower drops...

after being in bloom for 4 months from February til now.
I bought three green complex types in bud in early December and all those lasted for one month, which was rather disappointing.

This particular one lasted for quite a while, and it's my favorite shape and color too!

The plant still has one other flower which opened up around late March, so the show goes on!

The name tag reads Stone Lovely x sib ('C.H.#3 x 'Ching Hua 'SM/TPS)
This came as a large plant (at least for me) with 7 (of which 3 are rather new so I expect three flowers later this year) fans and one brand new fan just started, which I'm very excited about.

It's a great plant. All other complex paphs (well, most paphs) were bought as single growth, but this one has lots of growths and I paid less!

You are right. I love this one. Surprisingly long lasting too! Now someone needs to come up with a long lasting large & beautiful green complex with a nice fragrance and that will be THE ultimate paph for me.

My other green complex paphs are nice apple green at first, but then they don't hold that color too long. The whole bloom duration was barely one month, which was quite disappointing to me.

This one is a winner though!

Paphs are showoffs like that. My guess is that it's a survival strategy based on their pollinators.
