Thanks Rudolf. I do like this clone. The predominately white dorsal with large spots is especially striking.

A great species. I like the size of the second one and the colour of the third.

I received a few seedlings from a flask. All I was told was that they were from a Vietnamese species. Now that I have flowered it, it looks like gratrixianum to me. Does anyone disagree? The last photo has my gratrixianum 'Geyserland' clone as a comparison.

WOW Justin. Just WOW. Not just flowering one of the legendary roths, but flowering it with 3 spikes. Must be one of the highlights of your hobby. Incredible growing.

That is seriously nice. Fantastic colour. Looks a compact plant too.

That is a magnificent Bel Royal. Great shape and the petals look very wide. And the sepals don't furl like a lot of clones. Certainly, worth the wait and the space. Did you knock the top flower off?

Lovely form.

In Australia we say 'Monday's expert'. Wedding's, Parties, Anything even wrote a song about it.

The colour in 'Black Vision' is astonishing. The 'Awesome' clone ain't bad either.

Well Sam did send me a photo of King Kong. Assuming it was legitimate, it looked pretty good. Seven large very dark flowers on a first flowering seedling.

I have a flask of King Kong x Humongous that are growing well. Kiwi said that Sam had told him he had very high hopes for this cross. I would have thought this roth cross was legitimate as both parents are from his own breeding. If it was true that Sam was a bit of a fraudster, it wouldn't make...

This was an OI seedling of mine that got an AM award. Possibly has the potential to be upgraded in future. https://www.slippertalk.com/threads/paphiopedilum-rothschildianum-anisha-am-aoc.52235/

I don't bid myself. It is too difficult and expensive to import live plants into Australia. I sometimes just look at that website out of interest.

Looks like Temptation to me too. Kolopakingii has much wider leaves.

Thanks. Great to put faces to familiar names. Enjoy yourself. Looks like it would be a lot of fun.

An incredible clone.

Fantastic clone Rick. On of the best I have seen of this cross. Certainly a well-deserved award. The dorsal is especially good. It can often furl in this hybrid because of the kolopakingii influence. Great flower count too for a first flowering seedling. You might get 7 or 8 flowers in future...

Delightful.

Me too. Quicker than I could.

Every one of those clones is exceptional. I assume it is not a random sample of the cross. They are all award quality, based on the photos, some maybe even FCC.
