Lippewunder x helenae

[fibre]

This is a compact grower if you compare it to Paph. Lippewunder itself. But 28 cm leafspan is wide for a Paph. helenae. Flowers are about 10 cm this year, but were bigger last year.

It's got nice, wide petals. I like it!

Given the plant size it didnt really reach the breeding objectives, I suppose.

I like this one. People like me with limited space are probably drooling right now.

good colour

Wow! I really like! I stand to be corrected, but this cross contains very little druryi correct? Seems to be rather prevalent with the bold stripes.

I like the butterfly wing petals. The flower is quite unique.

Interesting.

Good clarity of color. Thanks for sharing

Species druryi is only about 2% of the species content of Lippewunder.

Druyi is not the only source for those stripes and markings.
Spicerianum adds the same thing, and villosum in different ways, but especially dorsal markings in this kind of hybrids are very much villosum influence.

This is a small plant, if you put it in relation to the plant size of a regular P. Lippewunder. But it is really huge for a P. helenae.

I'm happy that this clone doesn't held its petals forward to the pouch as most hybrids with helenae do!

That is fantastic Chris. A really striking flower. It has a different look about it.

I like this cross.
