This Paph. Orion's Belt opened up yesterday. This is the second time this seedling has bloomed for us, and this time the flowers were even larger than the first time. This clone has had the largest flowers in this cross. The flower width is 13 cm, with 7 cm large petals that are 6.4 cm wide. Paph. Orion's Belt is Paph Muriel Constance (a brachy) x Paph. emersonii.

:clap:That first one is AWESOME! :drool:
The 2nd one doesn't do much for me.
The 3rd one has character!:wink:
 
Are the petals different sizes in the first flower or is it the camera angle? The second kicks booty! I like!
 
Wow

grrr.... my Orion's Belts are just sitting there! No blooms in sight! But then again, they aren't quite old enough to bloom:(

You're very lucky to have such beautiful plants! WOW!!!!!!:clap:
