    Default Paph. St. Isabel 1st bloom

    This would have been nicer if somebody (yours truly, ) hadn't broken off the bottom flower with the watering wand today....

    I hate it when that happens but lovely blooms and pics. I love the multilforal hybrids.

    Thanks, Pete. I think my pics come out better when the sun isn't shining. These are just too stark.

    Did you take those pics outdoors or indoors?

    Also, is that from your private collection?

    Indoors, with sun beating down from a skylight. I should have waited a couple hours or taken them a couple of hours earlier.

    Yes, our private collection. We only have this one, and it finally, finally bloomed.
