Plants are from at least 6 different outcrosses. The main parent, used in all of the crosses as either pollen or pod parent; had 31 inch petals, nice 'shoulders' to the petal stance, and rich deep, dark, red-brown colors in the stripes and nice honey-brown colors on pouch and elsewhere. Each size group is from a different outcross or flask.

8 to 12 inch leaftip to leaftip span, $45

I got tired of repotting,
Compot Special - Paph sanderianum compot , These are ready to repot to individual pots. Most have between 5 and 12 seedlings. The leaf spans range from 4 inches to 8 inches. Priced at $10 per seedling, while supplies last or until I get a chance to repot them all. Message me with the number of seedlings you want and I'll pick a nice pot full out for you.

Leo,
What is the name of the out crosses?

Good Question
The answer is "I don't know, but there is a short list of suspects". :evil:

These flasks are seedlings from about a dozen seed pods, each size group is likely from a different seed pod. The parents are divisions of 7 different jungle collected clones from the nursery owned by Au Yip, of Kuching. They were imported in the late 1990's with proper CITES paperwork. They now reside in several different private collections, several were sold after pods were harvested, so ownership has changed hands since the crosses were made. None have been shown yet, none have had published photos, except mine which is imaged in the thumbnails on the margins of my website. So really these clones of sanderianum don't have public names.

I will put up on my website my images from the 2001 blooming over the weekend if time permits. I do hope the next time my sanderianum blooms it will be convenient to get it to AOS judging, it should be awardable.

One parent that was used most often had 31 inch petals and was truely magnificent. Almost all the crosses used "31 inches" as either pod or pollen parent. That clone has since died. When the flasks were sent out to a wholesale grower, the grower was not given the flask numbers. Now there is no way to know which plant came from which flask. I can guarrantee they will be good, true to type. But there are no specific names on them. Each size group is from a different seed pod, as the pods matured at different times. This is a good way to pick up some sanderianum that is different from the seedlings coming from the handful of named clones from the west coast.
