Paph Michael Koopowitz 'Nice Surprise'

[Wendy]

This the the Paph I bought labeled as adductum v anitum x PEOY. When it opened it was obvious that it was mislabeled. With help from the vendor I purchased it from we have concluded that it is Paph Michael Koopowitz...and a very nice one at that. This is a first bloom plant....I can't wait to see the next blooming if this one is so nice.

Nice surprise indeed. Did the vendour compensate you at all for his mistake? As nice as MK is I'd do anything for a anitum x PEOY. I'd have been pretty dissappointed with the outcome.

Bummer on the mislabeling. This looks like a real nice MK. Congrats

Great boo-boo!

Extremely nice Wendy! I have never seen a MK that lightly colored before. That is a very special clone indeed!

Lovely mislabelled -- now you are free to continue to look for anitum x POEY.:evil:

 

[JeanLux]

Yes, Nice Surprise; I like it too!!! Jean

Well, you know I like it, Wendy! But, now you still need that anitum cross!

Nice, Wendy! 'Nice Surprise' is a sweet name! I have such a plant blooming right now, too! My first MK!

Good suprise, this is a nice MK with deep markings.

I wouldn't ask for compensation from the vendor, since some work hard enough already. but I would still prefer to have a anitum x PEOY....

 

[Wendy]

Thanks everyone. No I'm not asking for compensation. I already get a discount when I buy from him as I do purchase most of my plants from him. I'm sure that when he does have an anitum cross come up for sale that he'll give me a break on it...he's very nice that way. He did say I could return this one for a full refund if I wanted....but it's such a nice MK that I'm keeping it. An anitum cross will come up sooner or later.

Until that day it's up to you how you feel - sad because you're longing for that anitum x PEOY cross or happy because you possess this lovely MK!

Nice MK =) anitum x PEOY looks like darker version of Paul's Park.

Thank you everyone. Here is a photo I took of it tonight. Notice that I managed to somehow damage the pouch on the oldest flower. :sob: Oh well, next time I will be more careful.
