    Default Paph Saiun (Wardii 'Green Aura' x Sukhakulii 'Flashdance')

    I can't believe I kept it alive long enough to get my first earned bloom. It was in bloom in Aug 2007 when I bought it, but nothing since then. I am grateful!

    Stunning! I love sukhakulii and its offspring. And I totally agree with your comment, Ischel, about being fascinated by the hairs.

    Cheers,

    Rob
