Hooray! a bit of color for Winter drab-time.

Paph spicerianum

and Paph Amarantine - a long, patient wait for this one! A primary cross of liemianum x moquettianum. Amarantine means everlasting in gaelic.

Both are very nice!

Those are so ugly! You should send them to me so you don't have to look at them anymore. :nod:

Barbara 12-21-2006 08:22 PM

Both are beautiful. So how long was your wait?

sjMagoo 12-21-2006 09:32 PM

Barbara, it took 10 weeks from the very first hint of a sheath to this picture. Doesn't sound so long now as I type it, but it seemed everlasting ;)

Those are great looking paphs Sarah. I think I like the first one the best. The pouch on that one is amazing. Great growing. What do you have these two growing in?

Wow, nice!!! I really like that Paph spicerianum though. Something very emeraldy or jady about it.

I love the purple, they are both really, really, reeeaallly nice!

sjMagoo 12-22-2006 08:44 PM

I have both growing in a sm.bark/chopped spag. mix with a crushed oyster shell top dressing ( which I'm not entirely sure helps, but it sure looks pretty ;) )
