Paph. Salvadore Dali
 
1 Attachment(s)
A confusing cross of Paph. liemianum x victoria-regina. The second flower has been open about five days. It generally drops the first flower shortly after the second one opens. The plant is huge with a leaf span of around 24".

But it's not drooping or dripping... nor look like a clock. Why the Salvador Dali name? What am I missing? ;)

I didn't name it. That's the name of the cross when I purchased it. I think someone on this board has taken credit for making this cross, but I don't remember who it was.

I grew paph. liemianum once a upon a time, one of my fav paphs... could have sworn the parents are the same species? or a variety of one or the other?

anyway, i clicked in part because of the name!

lovely flower, great growing

The answer to that question is somewhat fluid, and depends upon whether you are a 'lumper' or a 'splitter'.
