Maudiae Paph

[SFLguy]

This was the first orchid I ever owned and I'm glad to say it's still alive!

Of course the first growth it threw out ended up being a keiki and there's almost no information about Paph. keikis out there... but it's alive and throwing out a new growth from the base so I'm sure now it's getting new roots too!

I love it! I have a Raisin Pie which looks very similar.

Paph keikis are indeed rather rare. Do you have a picture of that developing?

That flowers is quite nice, an unusual combinations of characteristics. Do you know the name of the cross or the parents?

I'll have to check for pictures of it in development but here it is after having been sitting there for more than 6 months

Excuse the weird staking thing going on I was just trying to keep the keiki straight up haha

How unusual. I've never seen that before.

The bloom is quite pleasing.

I believe this is just a standard Paph. (Supersuk 'Eureka' x Paph. Raisin Pie 'Hsinying') x sib.
I'll check when I get home haha

I have this one. Seemed like my bloom was a bit different. I only got it last fall in bloom. Found it at Albersons tagged, shocking. Any who, I sure didn't know paphs could grow a keiki.
