Paphiopedilum Wössner Kolomic - kolopakingii X micranthum

[ORG]

A very interesting hybrid is
Paphiopedilum Wössner Kolomic the cros between kolopakingii and micranthum .
The result of the cross were only some seedlings. The plant which I show here is not in the best condition, but you can see that the plant is really compact and the flowers have an interesting colour.

Best greetings

I like the strong stripes.

When reading the parentage, I have to wonder what were they thinking when they made this cross? They lucked out on this one!

If only micranthum were to grow way faster than it usually does, I would be a big fan, and of its hybrids too... I like the miniaturization of the plant size, though... this one's a QT...

Pretty darn neat! Is this cross easier to bloom then say, Gloria Nagle? I love these crosses but I hate to wait 10 years to never.. before they bloom!

This was really easier to grow and to bloom like the rothschildianum cross with micranthum.
