Paph. Odette's Vision
Received this plant in bud, and the petals came out a little wonky, but...well, it's still nice. The first of many future blooms, I hope.

The various vini-Maudiae types with Odette in the name often come out a little wonky. Petals tend to pucker a bit around the heavy dark warts. The color and shine on this one are exceptional though.

Oh no! So this isn't just a fluke induced by the shock of shipping and new culture conditions while in bud? Poo...

Here's the same plant blooming again, 6 months later. The flower came out much, much nicer this time—no wonkiness!

That is very nice. I see the marked improvement. Wonderful close up of the flower.

I've got a neighbor who's name is Odette. I bet she would like this.
