Gary, what are you regretting? Im enjoying the discussion and views expressed. Discussion about interesting topics is how we all learn. I hope you're not feeling 'set upon'. Thank-you for posting your photos and impressions.
No not at all, I should have posted a smiley after my comment (I forget to sometimes, I forget that people cannot see if I am smiling when I post a comment)
Gary, are you saying the 2nd and 3rd photos are hybrids from the same cross?
No David, sorry I am muddying the waters a bit. The third is a hybrid. The second is a cross of two sanderianum clones. It was from a flask imported from the States (I can't remember who from, perhaps Orchids Limited, or it could have come from Paphanatics) I have a total of 5 surviving seedlings from that flask, and a few from a flask (from my own cross, the flasking was done by a local lab prior to me starting my own flasking)
I have around 26 clones of insigne sanderae/sanderianum, but will need to sort them all out, some are growing in my main greenhouse, but others are growing out in the garden, and in the other two greenhouses.
This year I currently have three sanderae clones in bloom (they seem to be about a month earlier than sanderianum) and 4 sanderianum clones in various stages of opening. I have made the following crosses this season
sanderae 'a' x sanderae 'b'
sanderae 'b' x sanderianum '1'
sanderianum '1' x sanderianum '4'
A lot of insigne, I know, but they make great pot plants and are easier to grow than most other paphs and quick to mature.
