Here's a look at some of my Paphs in bloom this Monday. Hope you ENJOY them..... Jim.
1. Paph. Lunacy (P. Hallas X P. Skip Bartlett). I'm going to give you this one with two different backgrounds see what one you like.
2. Paph. sukhakulii.
3. NoID. But it sure is impressive.

They're gorgeous. I do have to say I like the black background best on lunacy, it shows off the pastel colors wonderfully. Your NoID is not exactly impressive, it's AWESOME!

Oh beautiful! Re: the Paph. Lunacy - both pics are fantactic and I love the way the different backgrounds bring out slightly different colours. However, like Zoi2/ Joann, the sligtly purple-grey as a result of the black background just edges ahead for me :)

It all depends on which one you are bringing to the Illinois show for me.... :biggrin::biggrin: If I tell you the first one, does that mean I get the other???? :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Well, light colored flower stands out better with the dark background..... and the light background shows off the purple better... so just bring both of them on the 26th!!!!

Well Howard you can see it at the Illinois show but it will be roped off, it will be in the BOS display, hopefully with a ribbon on it.... Jim.

Great Paphs! The noid looks super nice with all those spikes.

What a NoID!! I only have one paph that I purchase in December. It is a young plant but is pushing out a 2nd new leaf and growing a 2nd fan since I got it. It is inspiring to see how plants can turn out under the hands of experienced growers.
