Bloomed a few months ago, finally getting around to posting here. ('Gigantor' x wardii v alba 'Majestic') Photographed in natural, direct sunlight.

Note received from Carol. Mrs. Norton passed away Feb 26. Rest in peace dear friend.

First time blooming. Purchased from Orchid Inn several years ago.

My backyard clump returning after last years drought. Opened for more than a week, so flowers showing some age.

Very pleased with how the flowers have improved on these as the plants have matured. The first, purchased as an unbloomed seedling, is from the OZ cross of 'Round Robin' x 'Blood Diamond' (NS 7.5cm). The second was grown from a flask acquired from HP many moons ago (NS 8.5cm).

Select division purchased last year from Tom (Fox Valley). Paph venustum x Macabre Magic. NS 12cm. Color break on this flowering but a reliable grower and bloomer for me.

In natural sunlight.

Dented pouch on this flower. Hopefully better on the next. Petal width is 1 inch.

('Jumbo' x 'Bengal Tiger')

All of these are first bloom seedlings of Paph wardii v. album ('Marble Wings' x 'Green Delight'). These great looking seedlings were purchased from Littlefrog's July listing. Each initiated spikes about three weeks after arriving. Thanks Littlefrog.

First time blooming.

Noticed this morning that these are just beginning to bloom here in my N. Virginia garden. This is one of two clumps that I have, now in their 3rd year, and both have increased in size every year. Once planted, I've given them no special care.

Sister plant to this one: http://www.slippertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=36623&highlight=laevigatum This one blooms a few weeks later. One of these plants is donated to the 2015 ST Fundraiser Auction!

Seemed to protest being repotted last year and did not bloom. Added new growths and decided to bloom this year. Just opening with petal length currently at 14 inches. Previously they grew to 22 inches.

Acquired from H.P. (Orchidview) probably about 10 yrs ago. H.P.'s besseae v. flavum breeding.

First bloom seedling.
