paph Dusky Maiden

Hi Folks,

I heard that this nice flower (Susan Tucker x Sophomore) is sterile ? Has anyone experience with this beauty ? I search in different books to have more info but did'nt find anything

Thank in advance for your help

Phil

Paph Dusky Maiden has 6 registered cross. Three with it as the pod parent and three as pollen parent.
Not many crosses for a plant thats been around for a very long time.

Marriott orchids have two nice (well, more than that) cultivars on their division list, and Hadley calls it a reluctant breeder in his offer.

thanks Carsten,

The plant is worth crossing wit another nice complex ! I just saw a bud yesterday at home !
My complex are budding late this year as my parvisepalum : I have a Magic Lantern wit a 12 cm stem but far from the blossom.

The complex have been flowering for 2 or 3 months now with still a lot to come from various growers, including me.
Just gone into spring now.
