Paph Wossner Supersuk disappointment

[Tony]

This one didn't turn out so good. The pouch is deformed with some nast color break, the staminode is oddly shaped on one side, and it doesn't seem to be opening any more than where it is now. And to top it all off, only one flower! Do you guys think there is any potential for future improvement, or should I just call this one a dud?

First bloom? Give it another chance.

 

[Heather]

I would give it another chance, but I'd also resent it in the meantime for the space it is taking up. No offense, but it is pretty wonky.

 

[Tony]

Yeah, it is. I cut the spike after I took that picture, no point in having the plant waste energy supporting that monstrosity.
