When I posted this last month, Paph. Supersuk x Raisin Pie, it had another bud getting ready to open. It finally has, and what a surprise! Looks like I got a twofer.
Now all I have to do is separate them when the blooms drop. Kind of neat!

Almost forgot, its official name is 'Hsinying Alien'.

Are they on the same plant? How interesting that the colors are so different! I have this cross and can't wait for it to bloom! Seeing yours makes the anticipation worse! Great Growing!!!

Amanda, there are most probably two plants in the same pot. When I looked closer, the mottling on the leaves is different between the two.

I kinda think this is a result of the variability in the cross. I agree it should be seperated for the future. Looks great, though.

oohhhh!! I have the same 'problem' I bought a Noid in flower in 2006, It has now finally
re-flowered and it's different to the first flower! It's alot darker ..now I think about it when I repotted about 2 yrs ago (yah I know supposed to do it every year..) there were 2 plants but I repotted both again as one was tiny & I thought they would be the same...
