Paphiopedilum tigrinum

[DrLeslieEe]

This is a division from Glen Decker that I got last summer. It’s a little late in bloom, and the summer heat during bud development has curled the petals. Oh well lol.

Oh, oh, and ah! Beautiful flower all over, but that colour on those petals!

Nice. Looks like a small plant too. Thanks for sharing. everything else looking good!

 

[DrLeslieEe]

Thanks all for your kind words.

The plant is actually medium size 40 cm across. It looks small because it’s squeezed between the venustums and the giant kolopangiis!

In front of this plant is another tigrinum in low bud. As well, a third variegated leaved tigrinum is tucked between them and the venustums.

Thanks for the kind comments.

The variegated tigrinum hasn’t bloomed yet. Perhaps next year. I will take closer pics soon.

Love the shape and colour. Looks very healthy. Have a few seedlings of these which are a year or so out of flask. I might be waiting a while for my blooms!

wow!!! nice variegation and wide leaves on a young plant....

thanx for posting!

 

[DrLeslieEe]

Thanks for all the kind comments,
Indeed, I hope this variegated tigrinum will bloom next year as it’s almost adult size. Be interesting to see if blooms are normal type or with special needs .
