She's quite lovely. Is swimming one of her hobbies? Seriously, she's a beauty!

Congratulations Sue! I know you have been waiting a while for this one. But if you ask me, she looks kinda sinister, looking down at your feet and not up. Then again, Orchids are not people. hehe. But the sinister look makes me like it more.

It's beautiful! Nice job.

Is Paph Venustum the full name?

Yes, Chris...but I've named her Abby as in AB Normal from the Young Frankenstein movie

I finally got my project plant to bloom first!
She's a good girl

Thanks Sue.

I like the name!

The reason I asked is that I have a Paph Venustum seedling and was wondering what she will look like eventaully. Yours looks different than mine will because mine is a cross: Paph venustum aureum x farieanum album
It is quite small still, so it will be a year or more before I get the joy of seeing a flower.
