View Full Version : Variegated Paphiopedilum Julius in bloom Paphraguy March 9th, 2005, 12:18 PM Finally, my variegated Paph Julius is in bloom again. Flowers are huge and they measure 8-10 inches and 12 inches if I stretch out the petals to the sides. Flowers from the last bloom session on a normal growth were even larger at 12 inches. http://mysite.verizon.net/vze6o1l1/ju1.jpg http://mysite.verizon.net/vze6o1l1/ju2.jpg Paphgirl March 9th, 2005, 01:29 PM Oh!!

The last flower on top is actually still growing. I love this hybrid! Paphgirl March 9th, 2005, 03:07 PM I forgot to answer your question earlier - yes, I can see the variegation on the leaves. Very nice! It has grown a lot since I last saw the plant. avery March 10th, 2005, 07:36 AM Finally, my variegated Paph Julius is in bloom again.

It is called "natural" spread instead of manual spread ! Hehe !!! :lol: Park Bear March 10th, 2005, 08:53 AM very nice, I need to stay away from here, I predict bankruptcy in my future :P Paphraguy March 18th, 2005, 12:54 PM Here is an updated photo of my Julius.
