Beautiful purple petals!

Amazing! Is this a first flower? How big is your plant?

Whooo! that's nice!

Where is that jealous smiley!

 

[Braem]

Nice ... very good colour and very nice pouch ... When Helmut Sang called me ... it did not take a second to know that was a new species. I remember that as if it had been yesterday.

I keep saying ....
mine will bloom one day, it's been steadily growing!

THe pouch is different from most I've seen. Nice colors to the dorsal and petals. I wish I had not cooked mine!

Very nice Paph. sangii!
Dr. Braem wrote in his latest book that Paphiopedilum sangii
is very rare in cultivation. (Braem & Chiron 2003, Page 195)
But I have seen one in the greenhouse of an orchid friend
and now another one in this forum.

i think they have become slightly more common in the U.S. in the past several years. i don't think there is big demand so i don't think a lot of people produce them

They die easy and Glen D says they're a pain to germinate. I know there are a handful of BS plants left at OL and Piping Rock with regular breeding attempts. But I wouldn't count on large numbers hidden away in US collections.
