First bloom of Paph. Lynleigh Koopowitz

This seems to be another example of a hybrid that is easier to bloom than either parent.

Plant has a leaf spread of 11", spike is 14¼". Flower has a spread of 3.625", dorsal is a light chartreuse. Unfortunately the second bud blasted.

I think this one is a keeper!

Cute! It might have a fragrance too

Please post a picture when it blooms. Looking at other pictures on the web, these seem to be rather variable.

Will do. It's head is still bowed so no idea what to expect yet. I hope it is nice!
