Du verdammtes, arrogantes, verficktes Arschloch!
Still learning every day
If you have luck, 1/4 are albino
Nope, if the parent plant is a real genetic alba, they will all be alba, now the question remains open whether the parent plant is a genetic alba...
A normal stonei is much nices than a one-time aberrant form ...
The flask is interesting to see what comes out of it in the next generation.
Agreed, I saw the parent plant, in fact it looks less deep green than the photos on the cover of Paphiopedilum in Taiwan II...
I would take 'Formosa' over what appears to be the album in Barry's link.
This is Iweyshen plant, ShenLiu Orchids. So far all that bloom from him is genuine, with proper parents... Now, a crippled flower like the one he posted can come as well from one of the various chemicals they use in Taiwan, and may not appear on the next bloom. They have a lot of growth boosters available, some excellent, some produce crippled flowers. I saw this especially on parvis, stonei, praestans, and some complexes in Taiwan, and the next blooming is usually normal.
Back to the original question, stonei Formosa has been sold out completely, there is not a single division still in Taiwan. I did buy, a German did buy, one US and two Japanese who ended up with the motherplants at the end. So the flasks cannot be a selfing and of good quality. If they are really Formosa x self, it means that the seedlings in flask are over a decade old, which is not unheard of through proliferation, but it means too that they will be extremely weak.
Better than asking the photo of the mother plant ( no proof that this is the actual motherplant of the flask), if you trust the seller, ask a photo of the flask. If the seedlings are whitish yellowish, they will die. If they seems vigorous, you can have a try.
