Hi, wanted to share pictures of two of my slippers that have just opened --Paph. Supersuk 'Eureka' AM/AOS Paph Raisin Pie Hsinyang X Sib. and Paph Sheila Hanes X Gigi Hughes Hope you enjoy, Bill [ATTACH][/ATTACH]
I love the first pic with the sunlight showing off the lovely details on the leaves! Great job!
Great looking slippers!
Cheers,
BD
wow amazing slippers, good growing.
Beautiful paphs. I love those sukhakulii crosses.
Nice job, Bill.
Mike
very nice Bill... both are really nice... and shows how slipper orchids really are quite diverse...
Both have beautiful blooms. Very, very nice! The plants look very healthy and happy. Good growing!!
I posted these pics of my Supersuk 'Eureka' x Raisin Pie 'Hsinying in the In Bloom section, when I was vey excited about how pretty the bloom was turning out to be (haven't been much of a paphanatic in the past.).. Thing is, these pictures were taken about 5 days ago and the dorsal petal STILL isn't up yet. How long does it usually take? How long do these blooms last? Anf if you can see, there is a small mini-bud above the opening bloom - will that be a bloom too, or is it just tease?
Thanks,
Maura
PS, some of the leaves are a bit stiff and curly - is that normal?
Don't know, Maura. My guess is if it's not up by now the dorsal may stay like that. It is kind of cute and interesting. At least yours bloomed; mine croaked. Maybe one of the paph folks can help you. Good luck!
