Paphiopedilum wardii ‘Monster’ HCC/AOS

[DrLeslieEe]

My large wardii received an HCC of 78 points today. I thought it would score higher but there were too many awards from Rob H. (LittleFrog) that was hard to surpass lol.

But I’m grateful it was recognized nonetheless… plus I was placated with the FCC !

Here is ‘Monster’ in all his glory:




There’s another few posts on ‘Monster’ this year and last year too, pre-award period. I don’t know how to link here but you can do a search on the forum if interested.

It is a beautiful flower

I found out that the cultivar name 'Monster' was reserved for Ramon so I changed the cultivar name to 'Last of the Dragons' because the flower coloration reminds me of the scales of a dragon.

Congrats Leslie for another award which deserves this lovely flower at any rate.

How do you handle this with the certificate ? Do you get a new one ?
