New Paph

[ischel1]

Hi Guys,
Got this Paph from a local grower this year in bloom. The tag says it's a Paph. Kolopa Kingii x Paph rothschildianum 'Charles E.' Any tips on what to do with it to bloom it again next year would be helpful. Thanks

That's gorgeous!

No tips on re-blooming it but just wanted to let you know that kolopakingii x roth is registered as Paph Bel Royal.

Elena, thank you so much. I will add that to it's label!

Elena, thank you so much. I will add that to it's label!

No problem! Is it a large plant?

[ischel1]

Very large Plant. Hmmm I'm thinking I might have to put in a moat with gators for Sara.

Can I steal this? Gorgeous!!!

Shaydra,
If you can get past the land mines I've placed around it, you can have it! HA!

[Shaydra]

LOL! Sounds like a bet.

I'm still waiting for delivery of my Phrag Eric Young 4N x Sorcerer's Apprentice 4N. Hopefully she'll keep the labels in them when she ships to me so I know exactly what varieties the parents are.. I know one version of this cross is called 'After Glo'....

I think it would look very nice next to your Bel Royal... *steals*

Not sure what to do with the bloom (don't have any paphs YET) but the plant is gorgeous.

I thought it would be large, I think I remember someone mentioning that kolo is the biggest Paph! I would threaten to steal it too but have nowhere to put it.....

....I could chuck that palm tree that takes up half the living room, I suppose....
