WOW. That is a beautiful dark clone Tim. A bit different to your standard PEOY. Nice beefy flowers as well. Very nice.

:clap: Lovely, I thought the petals might twist. Tim - give us an idea on size of the plant please & is this a single growth? I can see the new start in front, this looks to be a rather compact plant, I was under the impression a PEOY needed to be more mature with a new growth 1/2 mature before blooming?
Mine's starting to unfurl!

Tim that's a very impressive clone with dark colouration. I like it very much.

Best regards from Germany, rudolf

Thanks for the nice comments everyone.

umm... i'm not sure if it is just my condition but many of my plants tend to bloom on smaller plants than others i have seen at show...

having said that, this plant isn't one of the smaller ones... the two bottom leaves are about 25cm (10 inches) each. It is only one mature growth with two new starts, the one you can see and another smaller one coming off the other bottom leaf.

cheers

I bet that one is stunning in person. Pictures never do them total justice.

 

[paphioland]

nice thanks. I saw its parent Roth 'Radical' last year. Can see the family resemblence.

 

[paphioboy]

That is one gorgeous blooming... :drool: :drool: Great long chunky petals...

 

[SlipperFan]

That is gorgeous. And it's blooming on the first growth???

 

[Wendy]

Boy I just love that one....good looking flower! Do you have a show coming up so that you can show it off?

 

[Hien]

The flowers are so strong, they remind me images of athletes. Simply gorgeous.
