A new complex green hybrid opened up. It is a cross between Paph. Victoria Crossing 'Vicki' and Woodland Glade 'Spots'. Victoria Crossing is a cross Jerry made years ago, and it probably has the largest flowers of any green complex that I have seen. I crossed it with Paph. Woodland Glade, hoping to improve the form (At the time it was one of the best ones we had, now I probably would not use that hybrid as we have ones that are way better). I posted a picture of the parents as well, as it is always interesting to see what you get when you cross 2 plants together. You can definitely tell that Victoria Crossing is more dominant in it's progeny. I am a little disappointed that the dorsal did not turn out too flat, but it is a first bloom seedling, and that may straighten out next time it blooms. I definitely did turn out to be a large flower.
