Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range I (60-83°F). Culture as typical for multifloral paphs in subgenus Cochlopetalum (known for ease of culture and bloom). Benefits from somewhat more fertilizer than most paphs.
Comments: Paphiopedilum liltii is a part of the intergraded Paphiopedilum primulinum complex from the north end of the island of Sumatra. It is considered synonymous with P. primulinum v. purpurascens, though the plant and flowers are significantly smaller.
Parent plant: A fast growing, reliable blooming miniature sequential bloomer. The plant, obtained in 2000 as a single growth seedling, bloomed first in 2001 & now again in 2002 as a four-growth plant which still fits nicely into an extra-deep 2" plastic pot. The included photo is not great - the camera angle distorts the proportion of the dorsal sepal. Previous flowers on this inflorescence had better conformation of the petals.

Consider getting individual plants or compots instead of a flask.
You can place a "Notify Flask Recipients" Request, and either we or a flask recipient may contact you when plants are available.
You may also place a "Notify Retries" Request, and if an identical pollination (the same parents) is done again, we'll let you know.
You may reserve a flask, but it's very unlikely you'll get one ...this could only happen if we found a flask that we didn't know we had. |
| Yield Estimate: |
10 plants (based on flask surveys done 01/27/2004 )
|
| Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 2 - 3 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 09/10/2003 )
