venustum

[tnyr5]

It appears that my giant-leaved venustum is on track to have a comically tiny flower

 

[Carkin]

Wow, nice leaves!

 

[17andgrowing]

Lol

 

[Migrant13]

Hope you are wrong! Nice growing.

 

[SlipperKing]

Maybe, maybe not.

 

[SlipperFan]

Beautiful plant!

Is this plant a recent import from Thailand? I know a grower there who has impeccable Maudiae-types and others, all with pretty huge gorgeous leaves..

 

[tnyr5]

*shrug* No idea really. Next time I go orchid buying, I'll ask.

 

[SlipperKing]

Looks like a line bred venustum from Taiwan to me. Until proven otherwise, its straight venustum

 

[NYEric]

yep! Head like a tick! oke:

 

[tnyr5]

:sob:

getting there slowly, 'course it would have moved faster if Eric hadn't called it a tick-head oke:

At least you have a budding venustum. Be happy.

The foliage is so pretty I don't think I'd worry over-much about the size
of the flower. After all, you have to look at the foliage all year long.

True, I'm happy with him, but I think he might still be a little upse...what's that? Ok, I'll tell him.
My venustum wants you to know that "Phrags are just failed Paphs that were exiled to South & Central America."
He's madder than I thought

No judging of flower size by looking at the bract down low in the plantoke:oke:

Looks like it will be a normal sized flower.:wink:

Hmmm, my Phrags just retorted that Paphs are lost tribe slippers made in asian factories by 20 cent per hour workers!

"At least we didn't need any help to figure out how to come in white!" Alright enough! BAD PLANT!

Great foliage!
