Paphiopedilum haynaldianum 'Jeannie' x 'Jackie' AM/AOS

[smartie2000]

This is my first blooming on my haynaldianum. It just openned and I hope that the petals don't get twisty, so far so good. I bought it as a large seedling a few years ago.

I think my camera might be making the pouch appear slightly deeper than it really is. I did do what i could with color correcting. But trying to fix the pouch with a photo editor would mess up the color balance of my whole photograph. Maybe if I desaturate the photo it would be more accurate? I do think this flower has good colour though


thanks for looking

You have a good form haynaldianum. Nice growing!

[Jmoney]

outstanding color on this one. most haynaldianum are more drab than lowii but yours is most definitely not!

Nice. I agree with Jason.

Thanks!
I thought the color was good too. The dorsal got a bit more reflexed now though, but the petals looks more graceful now.
