Unknown Hybrid

[Ricky]

This paph should be a niveum but it´s definitely not.
I first thought that it might be Psyche but the flower stalk is very thin, too weak to hold the flower without help.

Any chance to find the name or is it a nice unnamed hybrid?

hi.
don't know what it is but welcome to slippertalk!

Welcome Ricky and good luck on your ID quest!

Probably will remain a noid. I think it's safe to say there's bellatulum in it. My first reaction was a S.Gratrix hybrid.
Then there was Bella Lucia, a Psyche X, Virgo .......

I think you have a complex brachy hybrid that will be impossible to nail down to a specific identifcation. I wouldn't even be surprised if this one had a non-brachy ancestor a few generations back.

Thank you for confirming my thoughts.

The dealer offered me to take it back and give me a blooming niveum instead. But I think i will keep it, because it´s really nice. The plant isn´t space-consuming, so I will buy a new niveum. This will be my 3rd try to get a niveum

Not niveum or Psyche but still nice.
Ah Berlin, memories of Haggelberg Strss.

Yes, it is all but impossible to confidently identify a Brachy hybrid. It does look a lot like my Psyche though.

It's a very nice bloom!

It doesn't look like my Virgo, either. Nice bloom, though.
