Actually we do not have it for sale oke: (Did you even look??), but we do have a cross that was made with it. I think Gemstone's Randschild is hard to find, just because Paph. randsii itself is very rare. We do have one plant of Paph. Gemestone's Randschild that I have used for hybridizing, and this is the only one I have ever seen. This is what our plant looked like:
The cross that we have available that I made with Gemestone's Randschild is onto one of our Paph. Bel Royal's (=kolopakingii x rothschildianum). I think the resulting cross will have lots of flowers, but will still have a heavy rothschildianum influence.

One other way of obtaining a rare plant is to search through the AQ. Find the owner and offer a nice price!

It is difficult to find and even more difficult at under $300 for a division. I have looked and was not ready to spend the money.
Rob knows that selfing his would not give the identical plant as what he has, BTW Rob...very nice one!

I have two clones from the late Tom Cox who got both of them awarded that originally came from Rands. I've had a waiting list going for a long time, but the plants just don't prosper like they did when Tom had them and I'm lucky to get a growth a year. Neither have bloomed anytime recently.

I have one of these, still a seedling but seems to be growing well... what leafspan are we looking at to get it to flowering size?
also, Orchid Inn have Paph randsii flasks, which are strong growers, from the flask I got, I have only lost one so far and that was because a caterpillar got it, so maybe some of y'all folks should get to growing more of the randsii to remake this cross.oke:

So, Bench when can I expect to get my randsii seedling to grow on!also, Orchid Inn have Paph randsii flasks, which are strong growers, from the flask I got, I have only lost one so far and that was because a caterpillar got it, so maybe some of y'all folks should get to growing more of the randsii to remake this cross.
oke:Serious, I have a plant sold to me off of eBay that has never tried to bloom, as randsii. At one time it was 5 growths now it is 3. It's growing well the ls is 12-14 inches, each.
I think one of our members has bloomed a randsii and posted it. His plant didn't look like mine but can't tell for sure just looking at a picture.
Hey Bench how about posting a PIC of your seedlings?
