Paph. rothschildianum (‘New Horizon’ FCC/AOS x ‘Raptor’ GM/JOGA)

[Duck Slipper]

The 2 Roth’s in the window, the plant on the right is Raptor. Regretfully I only bought 1 of these as a seedling in 2018. It has been a good grower. The first 2 flowers are 27+ cm. Kind of hard to hold a ruler in on hand and cell phone in the other and then take the pic! View attachment 27324 View attachment 27325 View attachment 27326 View attachment 27327 [

Clearly you are excited about these plants. So many pics!!
Nice form on both

Apologies for all the pics, I touched “full image” and it posted them but didn’t show up on my phone, so I touched full image again and apparently again. Admins. please delete pics!

 

[SlipperKing]

I had that happen before. The only thing I can figure out was to delete all and start over with the pics

Well done. They look amazing.

They look good. It would be nice to have a front on shot of one of the flowers. It is hard to judge from the angled flowers.

Emydura...this was all goofed up! Pushed too many buttons and then edited, I’m starting over, tomorrow!

They look as though they are strongly influenced by ‘New Horizon’

I was thinking that, especially the colour..

another good reason to wake up in the morning!

Another try, push full image once. Petal width 27+ cm.

Nice blooming with 4 flowers.

The dorsal/pouch angle seems narrow. This makes the flower look closed. Perhaps it’s still young.

Very nice roth!!!

 

[Ozpaph]

a pleasing 'first up'.

Looks great! I'm glad I bought one of these last year, but there is still a long way to go...

Four flowers on a single-growth first bloomer is great! Nice to see these starting to bloom out. Good size and great looking dorsal as well, hopefully, it opens up a little more on the next flowering. What’s the other cross?

I was waiting for the 4th flower to open a bit before posting.
