[Ruli]

Thank you!

 

[Justin]

nice one. please share more photos when in full bloom.

 

[John M]

That's nice! It's got beautiful wide petals, dorsal sepal and synsepal. A keeper for sure!

 

[emydura]

I agree with John. Stunning clone.

 

[W. Beetus]

Great shape to the bloom!

 

[SlipperFan]

That has an amazing dorsal sepal! It's a great flower all around.

 

[Ruli]

Thank you very much all! I don't have your knowledge about the quality of a flower (well, I know what I like or don't like, but that 's all...), so I'm happy that you like it
The seller wrote me down the clonal name on a paper, and it had some awards in it. But stupidly i didn't take the paper, thinking it'll be on the label. But the label is missing I wrote to the seller, but he didn't answer me yet.

If it was an awarded division it should have cost a bomb. I'd really try hard to get the clonal name for it to retain its value when you want to sell a division.

 

[Ruli]

The seller answered me.
It's Paph. rothschildianum ("Mount Millais"FCC/AOS X " Sam's Best" FCC/AOS)
(He wrote Mount Mallias, but I think it's a spelling error...)

 

[Ozpaph]

excellent seedling, then.

 

[Marc]

Nice roth, is it me or does the flower on the photo look like it still needs to mature a bit? Very nice allready and looking forward to seeing an update in the coming weeks.
