Paph. Orinoco Flow or Paph. Amarantine ?

Thank you.

These cochlios are so confusing..................nice colours, though.

Well, liemianum is quite obvious in this flower. Given the variabilty in hybrids, I wouldn't dare to say if this has one half or three quarters of liemianum in it.

Do you know the answer (is it a quizz), or did you loose the tag, and you want our opinion?

I made both crosses, and to me it looks more like a Paph. Orinoco Flow (=Amarantine x liemianum), but I agree, it is hard to tell them apart.

Are there any other 'Enya' named Paphs? Guess I'll be listening to her all evening! LOL.

LOL...
I named the first "Amarantine" as it means "Everlasting" or "Immortal":

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amarantine_(song)

I thought it would be an appropriate name, as the flowers are repeat blooming, and are almost "Everlasting". One of the Amarantine clones I gave the name "Orionoco Flow", and as it was the parent of Paph. (Amarantine x lieminaum), and I liked the name, I named the new hybrid "Orinoco Flow"...

Actually there is a third "Enya song" : Paph. Aldabaran (= primulinum x Amarantine):
