Paph. Lowii

I'll post more images as it fully opens. I took the advice and watered with Epsom salt today to green up the plant a tad.

Lovely species will wait for the blooms

Is it just me or does it seem kinda small for the bloom to be already starting to open? It is a first time bloomer so maybe the flowers will be slightly smaller?

Looks good to me. Good luck

Pouch looks to be more red than than most lowii iv seen.

I'm planning to cross sanderianum into this one if it grows well

good luck with the cross.
Personally I'd just buy a flask from Sam - OIZ443 Paph. Mrs. Reginald Young (sanderianum 'Dr. John Doherty' AM/AOS x lowii var. album $125.00
'Goldrush')
This expects to have some long and spiral petaled flowers. This is the 1st step of the two steps albinal
breeding for albinal. Hence no album will be expect but it is good for breeding. Limited! Net price!

Why buy a flask when I have a lab and materials to produce as many flask as I like

Only problem is having the seed to do so

and good enough parents to spend the time, money and effort for 7-10years of your life.............buy a flask, and tinker for fun.

I mostly do my own breeding for fun and pratice. I have the lab, materials, everything I'd need. It's true my parents are not awarded and I make kill them in culture if unlucky but that doesn't matter to me

All about the pratice and fun of doing it! Plus I save my money to buy more plants this way too

 

[Tanner. C]

Almost open all the way

Looking very good!

 

[Tanner. C]

I'm thinking the petals will spread out more as they seem droopy, most likely because it just opened up

[Ozpaph]

nice colour and markings. i hope it 'perks' up, too.

To bad there are no judging events near MN in the next two weeks. Would love to get this one judged!

Plant might be weak.
