Default Paph Memoria Violet May

Memoria Violet May is fowliei x godefroyae var. leucochilum. This is one of the miniature paphs with the compact leaf spans from Ross Hella. I bought this as a seedling from him a few years back and this is the second blooming. Still very hooded the second time around but I like the shape and coloring.

Thanks for looking!

Very cool color. How big are the leafs? I'm hoping the seedlings I have from Ross bloom in 2-3 years (sooner would be nice, haha).

Ross owns Deerwood Orchids and specializes in mini-paphs.

Leaf span is a little over 6 inches. I have 2 other mini paphs from him that I got as seedlings along with this one. They still have not bloomed yet but I'm probably not growing them correctly.

Ross has told me some of his seedling can take 5-7 years to bloom.
