Here are probably the last large multiflorals I'll be selling off to make room.

The first is Paph Eva Weigner (stonei x haynaldianum): 2 mature growths with the front one just starting to show a sheath.

The second is a Paph kolopakingii. It was sold to me 6 years ago as a near blooming size division of 'Dyak Warrior' AM/AOS.
Given the fact that it was NOT near blooming size, I wonder that it might be a selfing of 'Dyak Warrior', not a division as advertised 6 years ago. Regardless, it's now an extremely large one growth plant with a leaf span of 30 inches.

Marcus, you just don't get this "orchids before food" thing, do you? :poke:

Contratulations, Quick-With-The-Mouse, Heather. :lol:

Does any one have a photo of Eva Weigner in bloom? I've seen them for sale at various places on the internet, but none of the places show photos of the flowers.

Thanks!

Susan, like most hybrids, you will find many different variants. Here is a LINK (http://www.elkgroveorchids.net/images/EvaWeigner.JPG).

My favourite is the 'Tower Grove' one (I there's a pic around somewhere, if you do an image search on google. I'd love to get one of those.

Thanks, Wendy. After seeing some of your wonderful Paphs, I wish we could be trading divisions and plants, too.

Aha! That's my Eva Weigner that was linked to...I've never seen another one in bloom. I bought that one years ago from Gold Country.

Candace, that is very nice, how big is the plant, how many flowers does it produce?

Hi, Candace!

I had no idea that that EW was yours! :lol: I have seen many different EWs and I think I like yours the best!

Thanks, it usually has 4 blooms per spike. It has nice color and size but the petals can sometimes go a little haywire. Sometimes they aren't all symmetrical and will curve a bit oddly. It's a fairly large size plant. About as large as a stoneii I'd guess.
