Paph godefroyae alba


The pick of the litter from a flask about 18 months ago. Thick cream white twin flowers. The well marked and light mottled leaf span from this plant is about 8 cm long

A beautiful sequential hybrid



This plant was given as a seedling about 3 years ago. Since then it has four growths in it. The first bloom started when the plant was about 2 years old. It is growing in SH (semi-hydro) with about 1 cm of water in the pot.
Like one of her parents, this sequential hybrid first bloom started in early November 2009 and it is still throwing out new flower bud after the older bloom has withered off.
A word of caution: not all paphs will thrive well in SH.
