Paphiopedilum Berenice

[Secundino]

Paphiopedilum Berenice 'Lula da Silva' in spike again. It flowered for the first time in 2015 with two spikes and four flowers each. This year there will be one spike, though the plant has three big new growths.

Every morning I've to fight some aphids and mealy bugs ... they love hiding between the hairs and are well protected under the big bracts.

First sun rays of a very hot day after a first very warm night.

Looking good this on one of my favourite hybrids

I like this cross with its lovely flowers a lot. BTW nicely photographed.

A well captured beauty!

Id like to see all the flowers open, later.

Thanks, all! I posted here the first flowering, two years ago.
I hope the buds on this year's spike will be as good as then! I'll update soon.

Nice. Please do post shots again when more are open. This is one of my favorite hybrids.

Lovely flower and I can't wait to see more blooms open.

At this stage, the second bud will be completely open in three days or four. I wonder if it will make the 90º torsion it still needs to be fully resupinate.

Odd for the bud to be back wards

Beautifull colour shape pattern to the plant, wonderful.

Second flower open now.

 

[Secundino]

Number four is just opening - and there will perhaps be a number five!

Nice one!!!

Very nice to see the whole display of flowers
