bellatulum x vietnamense cross

[midmichigan]

Has this cross ever been done.. I think it would be interesting to see.. please advise if any one knows about this cross

Yes. Most look good, but I managed to get one that bloomed out to be the ugliest paph I have ever seen. The bloom was small, cupped, and the pouch was square! or rather, a perfect cube....after a day fully open, it mercifully dropped off, and I had no regrets when the plant died shortly thereafter. Take care, Eric

The cross was named in 2003 by Franz Glanz as Wossner Vietnam Beauty. Here's a link to a picture on the Orchids, Ltd website. They have it for sale.
