I would've lost my mind (what's left of it, anyway ;) )with a wait that long!

Very nice, I love the color!

I think the only longer wait would be for sanderianum to get to flowering size!!!

I like the combination.

You can see all the parents clearly in that one. Did you give the plant a cool rest in winter? I understand that some armeniacum hybrids benefit from cooler, brighter and drier in winter to stimulate flowering. If so, perhaps that explains the long time between initial sheath versus a bloom. You win the award for patience!

Awesome bloom!

No-- I treated it the same way as other paph plants.I do tend to keep cool & dry for some of the other parvis but I didn't for this one .Kept it with the multis but in front so got good light.

Nice combination of it's parent's shape and color/pattern.

Jane I love it!!!!!!
As for the wait, I would have pulled it out myself a long time ago trying to stretch it out of its sheath :blushing:
