Paphiopedilum ??

[Hakone]

Hi folks,
what is that?

What is wat? That long fuzzy thing in the middle?

If that's what you are talking about, then you got urself a flower. :clap:


If you are talking about the ID of the plant, then I'm unsure of it. Only when the flower opens can you tell and you are (hopefully) to ID it.

The plant seems niveum very

The plant seems niveum very

Brachy or brachy hybrid for sure. The stem already seems too long for bellatulum, so niveum is not unlikely.

Looks like a paphiopedilum to me. I'm not familiar w/ the markings on the leaves so I'm out. Maybe if you place something next to the plant for size reference it would help...???

Is there really any question as to this being a paph? What else could it be?
Definitely a brachy or brachy X.

Thanks for reminding me! I'm fresh out, the new year is any thing but happy but that's anothr post!

Sorry to hear you're having a tough year already. Hope you have heat and electricity and good weather for a break.

Yes, that is paphiopedilum, but the species is unknown:sob:

Do you have a thaianum in your collection. If it is, it's a good sized one. Send it to me for closer examination.

Hello Eric,
do you think thaianum?

 

[NYEric]

Looks like it but It's a lot further grown than mine. Hopefully I can get a couple at the WOC!

Did you get one or more at the WOC?

 

[NYEric]

No but I know a source for hangianum later this year. There is a vendor at WOC w/ flasks of the reddish hangianum but I have no room or patience to grow them from flask.
