Hi guys, I haven´t been active on the forum for a pretty long time now (working on my Bonsai trees :smitten: ) and I decided to upload some pics.
The first one is Paph stonei, a very special plant for me, because I bought it when I was 17 years old from friends of mine, an old couple with a paph collection. Very nice people. I do not know where this particular stonei originally came from, but I will ask in the next days. It is probably a very old division, eventually wild collected. But I have to check that.
The next plant is Paph praestans. Got two of them, one bloomed 4 months after I received the plants. I wanted to make a good photo with my dslr, but the lowest flower started to wither. So I took de pic with my cell phone
The pic is terrible, color of the pouch is more red actually.
Paph rothschildianum from Taiwan
This one is Paph philippinense x praestans or the other way round. It is a giveaway. So if someone is interested just contact me or write a comment. (I live in Switzerland)
It is a very strong plant, 9 mature growths or so. The reason for the low flower count is the size of the growth where the flower stem came out. It was pretty weak. If you want I can post photos of the whole plant.
It is growing very fast, I only give it away because I have a species collection.
