frankly - if this paph was to be display next to a callosum and its hybrid i cannot see the differents. it's really beautifull.

It is pretty distinctive compared to callosum. Paph barbatum and the varieties of callosum are a bit more difficult. Paph lawrenceanum isn't nearly as common as callosum, has a different range, a different morphology including shape of the petals and dorsal sepal and of course the staminode.

Beautiful. Long one of my favorite species. I never got on the vinv/coloratum hybrid bandwagon, but the species is scrumptious!

 

[NYEric]

yup

I never see you there! oke:

Nice to see our friends again this year Uri! The flower aren't as balance as they have been in the past, can you explain this?

 

[paphjoint]

Well yes the other clone is a single growth division - so I guess that it could be considered as a first time flowering plant
