Paph. Buddy Mark
 

Does anybody have any pictures or information on Paph. Buddy Mark (St. Swithin x Bellatulum)? Anything would be appreciated. Thanks!:)

It was registered in 1992 by Olaf Gruss. He did not originate the cross.

No registered crosses exist using it as a parent, and it has not been awarded.

Google Images turned up nothing.

That's usually when I quit looking!

I couldn't find anything on google either. I just picked one up last night at my local garden store. They had it discounted, and I couldn't resist.I guess I'll just have to wait and see what happens when it blooms. If I can get it to bloom! Something tells me this one might take awhile!

If you look at these crosses, they should give you a good idea of what to expect:

Note that Paph Saint Swithin= Paph rothschildianum x Paph philippinense

Paph rothschildianum x bellatulum= Paph Rolfei
Paph philippinense x bellatulum = Paph Phoebe

These both have strong influence from the Paph bellatulum parent with a flower stance that is a bit different.

This man Olaf Gruss is a member of The Slipper Forum and He is the guy you are looking for, try and look him up. Good luck. Jim.

Here's what it looks like
