Paph barbigerum

[gore42]

This is a first bloom seedling for me. It's a tiny plant, only about 4 inches in leaf span. I'm hoping that I'll get better form from the next bloom, but this isn't too bad. I do like the color.

Here it is:

And a close-up. I was trying to focus onthe staminode, but my camera didn't agree.

So when will you have some of these for sale Matt? I like it! Very glossy. Almost looks wet on those closeups.

cdub,

I have about 80 barbigerum seedlings, but they're going to need a while to mature. They're in compots now. I do have a source for more blooming size plants, but for some reason they haven't returned my last couple of emails. Guess I'd better try again
