Okay, I have one for you, and actually I can change it to
What was I thinking?
? It is Paph. King Tutankhamen, a cross between concolor and sanderianum.
I hate to admit it but I am the breeder who is responsible for this ugly duckling:
Another seedling:
At the time I made it, because concolor x sanderianum had not been registered and I was curious to see what it would look like. I think in general Paph. sanderianum should only be used with other multifloral species or hybrids, if you cross it with anything else, it usually turns out ugly, because the petals usually will be all deformed. Another problem I have noticed with sanderianum hybrids, is that usually the first flower will never come out right, and is usually pinched.
