    Default Paphiopedilum Rothschildianum

    This one I snapped for Ron. I know how much of a Roth addict he is, so when I saw this beauty, I had to capture it on film This paphiopedilum is from the SWROGA show in Rogers, Arkansas this past weekend. Same grower as the lowii I posted a few minutes ago.

    Nice broad dorsal and chunky pouch. a very nice one indeed...thank you! I assume it was not awarded. Many times that small color break on the lower flower's pouch will prevent and award.

    Is just me or does it seem that this one is a lot fatter (breadthwise) than most of the roths i've seen posted here? Stripes on that one are indeed handsome. Still waiting for my susan booth to flower. Sigh.
