My first US plant!

Bought this off a fellow grower, who got it from a show from the US nursery 'Orchid Inn'.

The name is: Paph Macabre 'Night Magic' x adductum 'Hughes Dark Cap'.

Years from flowering, but It gives me a chance to try growing some juvenile Paphs.

Very cool Tom, just knowing where it started out, makes it fun growing. Hope it grows as nicely as all your others do for you and I'm sure it will. Enjoy!

Tom: Check out the price on this baby. Couldn't find the exact match but if yours grows up to be anything near this one, it will be gorgeous!

That Paph. Macabre is a stunner I'm a big fan of adductum, so I'm hoping for a sweet cross.

I've had trouble finding any photos of the this cross, if anyone stumbles across a shot I'd love to see what I have to aim for.

It'll be at least 3 years wait maybe more,just have to hope for an end of Uni Present hehe
