A New Complex Paph!
Default A New Complex Paph!

So I decided to hit the flower market in a while.
I found one store with a few nice complex paphs.
I kept looking at this huge green/orange/copper tone with spots on the dorsal.
Then I saw this spotted one with a tag. There were three others with the same tag that read "Michael Crazy Horse Sib #M6".
Now, I did hear the name crazy horse before. It is used in complex paph to introduce brown color or spots if I remembered correctly.

One of them had a flower, it had a real nice shape, but the spots looked rather washed out. I have one spotted complex with very clear color.
I thought I would get one just for variety's sake.

Knowing that flowers with the same tag can vary in shape and color, I wanted to bring home the one that's already in bloom, but then I ended up with a multi-growth (6) with two spikes.
One spike has two buds on, so I'm guessing the flower size might be smaller than its full potential, but I would still love it if they both make it.
Then there's a low sheath or bud emerging on another growth.
I'm so excited to find out what the flowers will look like!

can't get enough of looking at the huge sheath slowly coming out of the plant.
