Paph. Oto

[Candace]

The parentage of this one is Winston Churchhill 'Indom.' FCC/AOS x fairr. 'Fair Red' FCC/AOS and is an easy bloomer for me. I think I sold a piece of this one to a fellow member here. I was naughty and didn't slap a clonal name on it. It bloomed out with a bit of a streaked synsepal this time, which it hasn't done before. It's got another spike that should be opening any day. I've seen some mixed results from this cross, but I think this one is pretty nice.

It's growing in s/h in the greenhouse.

[Candace]

4" wide and 4" length.

It was me Candace mine is at this stage now, not far behind you, how do you like the background "boy it's cold here". Jim.

Jim, it sure looks cold out there! Your paph better flower nicely or else . . . . :evil:

 

[biothanasis]

Lovely both!!!!

jblanford: yours is like a face saying what you wrote...!!!!

 

[SlipperFan]

It's interesting that the plant, in two different places, blooms at the same time.

Hey Candace..nice to see what one of these looks like in bloom. I bought one of these through our club last Aug. Club fund raiser on young wholesale plants ordered from Oakhill. Mine is listed as: P. Oto = (W.C. 'Indomitable' FCC X fairreanum '1-02). I'm sure it will be very similar and I will be very anxious to see how it compares to yours. The Oakhill website doesn't have a picture posted of this cross. How long have you had yours?

Hey Jim you're going to freeze you bud off if you're not careful!!oke:

 

[Candace]

Brrr. And we're supposed to get some frost and near freezing temps tonight. That's cold enough, thanks!

Allen, I've had it probably 3-4 years.
