    Cool My Paph spicerianum x charlesworthii in double bloom

    Was in the greenhouse today watering plants and saw this jewel and had to share it with the forum. It is a cute paph cross that I really like. The guy is in a 2.5 inch square pot. Really unbelievable that it bloomed. Please enjoy:

    Love this one very much! It is really strange that mine is also blooming with 2 blooms and is in the same sized pot.

    Post up a photo! Maybe these bloom when the plant is still relatively small?

    These are always pretty little flowers around the house, never seem to require fiddling with, just grow & flower.
    BTW, you may have the name of the cross but its called Paph Memnon, just in case.

    Very cute . Charlies are quite small and can pass that trait on to hybrids.

    Very pretty... I like the soft pink. Adding to the wish list as it seems an easy bloomer... what a nice greenhouse surprise for you!
