Paph spicerianum var.giganteum. Update

Hi.
I would not be too worried about getting a Paph spicerianum var.giganteum. instead of the Paph spicerianum .
both are beautiful flowering plants with spicerianum var.giganteum. suppose to be only a biggger version.
I have just flowered a spicerianum var.giganteum. 4 1/2 years from deflasking 10 plants.
Looks ok for a first flowering plant.

The first picture is of the Paph spicerianum var.giganteum. first flowering.
2nd photo of it in its 80mm (3 inch) pot.
Cheerio
Ron

Nice plant, Ron. We had a big one that bloomed great and proceeded to keel over and die. I have idea why. Fortunately we lose very few plants, but this thing just croaked without warning. I want to get another because I really like it.
