Paph Lynleigh Koopowitz and China Moon

[Bob in Albany N.Y.]

The first photo is one of a few that have bloomed of late. This one has darker striations then the others. It is (delenatii x malipoense) = Lynleigh Koopowitz

Below is Paph. China Moon. It is a new one that I just got from Parkside in Feb. of this year. This is composed of (Greyi 'Ching Hua x armenicaum 'Moon Festival).

While I do not grow brachys and parvis, I do enjoy them and appreciate them.
Unlike maudiaes....

(oh heck, I even appreciate a few of those too.)

For some reason though, mottled leaves really irk me.
I think that is the main reason I don't grow any of them. I know, that's totally bizarro isn't it?

[SlipperFan]

Yes, that is totally weird, but then again, the fact that I grow slippers at all makes my boyfriend wonder about me sometimes. I think that he is even getting to like them, thanks to the malipoense smelling like his favorite berry.

I really like the China Moon, although the Lynleigh Koopowitz's dramatically dark veining makes it nicer than others I've seen.
