    Default paph kolopakingii x moquettianum

    These paphs opened this week in the GH. The species cross has been opened almost 3 weeks while the Silver Dollar only a few days.

    You always have very nice flowers and plants! I cannot decide which of the two I like best...both have their own unique features.

    Love the paph kolopakingii x moquettianum. I believe this is now called: Paph. Lawless Tristan.

    Cheers,

    40-50cm... hmm that is a pretty big plant, ie it would definitely take up a lot of space....

    this is why I'm weary of getting a kolo or it's crosses... aaah well... maybe wish list material for when i have a bigger grow space!

    Thanks for sharing this Howard and for the extra info.

    This is nicer than a few I've seen of the cross. I have 3 seedlings, one grows very well, one grows average and the last won't grow at all.
