Paph supardii is now in full bloom with five flowers. The last bud is now half open. This is a large species and very closely related to rothschildianum. Flowers are very unique with interesting and weird contorted petals.
Oh that is wonderful!!! Thanks for the update Peter!!!!
Thanks!
R U thinking of getting one in the future? I love this species but it does take up a lot of room.
Very nice Peter. This is one on my list. How long does those stay open?
Oh you saw me looking didn't you? hahaha!!!I don't know. I think it is cool but the petals weird me out a little!
Thanks, Forrest! The blooms can last anywhere from 1-3 months. Mine has been in bloom for over a month now and the last bud is now finally open but not all the way yet, still unfurling its petals and the pouch growing.Originally Posted by Forrest
That is why this species is so unique to me because the petals are so different in a nice weird way (to me, the petals look like handlebar moustaches) and I love this species.Originally Posted by Heather
very nice!
So cool, Pete! I'm putting that on my gotta have list....

That is absolutely superb.
Reminds me somewhat of Paph Transval(my favorite Paph).
