Phrag. schlimii
Here is a picture of another Phrag. in bloom now... Phrag. schlimii. This is my largest plant of this species, with a leaf span of about 2 feet... the flower is VERY fragrant, and smells like some sort of fruity yougurt.

You should cross this with your d'allesandroi #1 or besseae #3 for a nice peach Hanne Popow.  |

Looks great Pat, what are you growing it in? Do you have a picture of the whole plant?

Thanks!  It is now growing in humus with a fine bark top layer, and I added some moss

Oh, that's so pretty, I want one, 'cept I just got a Paph. delenatii, so I guess that'll have to do for now. Jeeze, but I still like that one!

Sometimes, Paph. delenatii will suffice for anything, they really are a great species!
The plus side on this one is the powerful fragrance of a fruity yogurt. The downside is the small flower size, just about as big as a half-dollar coin...
Keep us updated with your Paph. delenatii though!

Very charming. I particularly like the picture of the whole plant.
