Sweet roth! I just got a 'Giant Wings' cross from Sam. An 8 leafed single fan monster. Sam always sends out the best he has got in stock.
 
I am really looking forward to seeing this roth open! I have a couple of the same cross, but mine haven't flowered yet.
 
Still a work in progress, but the first to open is now 8 inches wide, petals pointing down and back, or would easily be much wider. I am not roth expert but I certainly am enjoying this monster paph!

Wow, huge spike and imposing bloom!

What is the width of the dorsal in centimeters?

Nice color. I like the downswept petals, but my only critique is how narrow they are. However, if this is its first bloom the petal segments will likely get a little wider next time. Overall it is a keeper. Congrats!
 
3 open one more small bud. Not sure it will open though.

The pouch is really red and really nice. It will get better next time as it is probably stressed in your new conditions and it will need time to adapt and flower better next time.
