Paph Johanna Burkhardt 'Ella'

this beauty is in flower now, named it after my daughter

forgot to say I cant take credit for the photos, Jim took them, thanks Jim

WOW Brad. That is truly wonderful. Love the dark colour and nice petal stance. I'm truly envious. Is this a first flowering seedling? Do you think the anitum variety was used in this one? It seems darker than the normal Johanna Burkhardt's.

Awesome. The roth form really came through in this one. That's a keeper. Congrats

Hi David, yes first flowering, nice sized plant though with a good strong new growth started last season. I think this might have come from a proper adductum, most of the anitum derived ones have a darker dorsal.

I'd agree with that. It doesn't look quite right for an anitum hybrid. Just a darker and superior form of the adductum variety cross.

Very interesting one.

Good color and rare "horizontal" petals for this hybrid.

Hopefully with this much beauty it will produce more flowers on future bloomings. Very special clone.

Wow it's perfect!

They is really good, Brad.
Keep the pollen for something special.

Very good, I see the Southern Hemisphere season for multis is starting.
Get ready, set ......go! At times like this, I wish I grew something more than Maudiae crosses!

It's unfair. Brisbane have a head start.

Ahh, but only a concern if you have multis.oke:
