I just bought this plant. The seller only advertised it as stonei but when I asked more details, what it was my surprise that it was a cross with rothschildianum, so I knew it was a Lady Isobel, a hybrid that I wanted very much.
From tip to tip it measures 95 cms and the flower from 13 to 14. Two flowers and a bud. The tag says:
Paph stonei '2008' x Paph rothschildianum 'New Valley'
I have several questions:
1) Why not write it as Lady Isobel?
2) What characteristics do Paph stonei '2008' and Paph rothschildianum 'New Valley' have? I've searched the internet and can't find the cultivars. I have the impression that they are very dark cultivars. Rather than calling her Lady Isobel I would call her Lady Godiva. It's so chocolate! hehehe I've heard that until they're settled in their new home and after two or three bloomings, you have a real idea of what you have.
3) Can anyone recognize the nursery by the JF3343 nomenclature?
I’m fascinated with this plant. And I think I need to restaking it, I don´t like the way it was done.
Thank you so much!
