Very cute plant. Something about that bloom reminds me of a starlight mint.

Beautiful plants! This is a species that I've been trying to add to my collection for a while, but haven't been able to because it's always either out of stock or the grower is not selling.

This is currently the only slipper that I have in bloom - everything else is either busy growing or recovering from blooming. The spike initiated back in January and the bud opened maybe a week or so ago. I apologize for the blemishes on the flower; I just moved cross-country and the plant spent...

What do you call a group of Magic Lanterns? An Illumination! Jokes aside, I love the display you have going on. Every single division looks very well-grown.

Congrats on all those spikes. Mine decided that it would rather put out two new leads this year LOL

Sure, the flower has a droopy appearance, but look at that bold coloring! I honestly feel that these "oddballs" need more love. Not everything beautiful has to be flat and round, IMO.

I'm really liking this species, from the flower size to the coloring/patterning.

I love the bold pink on this one!

Super intense color on this one!

Coming along nicely!

I'd say the flower has its good points despite the deformity. I love the soft pink color and the gentle picotee effect created by the darker bands along the petal edges. I agree with Ozpaph - there's always next flowering.

Wow...what a spectacular show! It's like a massive fireworks display that is taking place over the plant.

Interesting to see that the rung parent completely wiped out the henry's spots and bright pink lip. I can definitely see how you'd come up with that comparison. The flower does kinda give off a cochlo "vibe."

I love the soft colors on this one. Is there any fragrance on this clone?

That's a nice, healthy plant. I love the twisty, hairy petals.
