Paph. Color My World 'Shocker'

[Gcroz]

Purchased this division 2 years ago from Hadley. This will be the second blooming since I've had it. The flower just started opening 2 days ago, so I'm hoping it will open more fully.

The parentage is Greyi x Winston Churchill. Interesting markings and color. The plant definitely has hybrid vigor and according to Hadley is a willing parent.

Sorry about the photo quality, I took the pice with my cell phone.

So beautiful!

That is very nice! Anyone tried this cross using just plain godefroyae instead of greyi (godefroyae x niveum). I think using one of the more red godefroyae clones could make for a VERY interesting flower.

P.S. My WC will be coming into bloom in August so if anyone has pollen of a red godefroyae clone we could make some babies later in the year...

Very Nice, perfect for crossing with parvi or other complex and the flower will be whiter within 2 weeks , the green in the petals will disappear.

I have got one division too but not in a bud actually, it is a strong grower !

I really like this one and the crosses possible with it, I'll be on the lookout for this line of breeding

This really is a high impact clone! Whenever I'm on Hadley's web page, I always sneak a glance at it. You have great taste in divisions! And deep pockets.

Very nice pattern and shape.

 

[SlipperFan]

I can see why this is desirable for complex breeding.

 

[SlipperKing]

Nice looking pattern. The petal pattern reminds me of malipo petals.

 

[TADD]

Very nice. I agree I always feel the need to look at that one.
