Hello,
6 years ago I bought that Paph. as Paph. rothschildianum. Unfortunateley it now turns out to be a cuckoo's egg.
Please help me to identify it (if possible):
It looks a bit like St. Swithin but there are some differences.
Leavespan is 80 cm. The flowers are extremley narrow with a natural width of 5 - 7 cm and a total length of 25 - 29,5 cm.
The petals are strongly curved at the shoulders with a maximal length of 23 cm.
Sepalum and synsepalum are straightly aligned and very narrow, too, what makes the flowers a quite elegant. The dark maroon veins are bold.
The pouch is comparingly dark red.
The staminodium is yellowish and Roth-like.
Here are some fotos:
In spite of being a fake roth. I like it. So thanks a lot for your help.
