View Full Version : Paph Susan Booth 'Paracombe' Emydura March 30th, 2005, 09:41 PM Here is a photo of my Paph Susan Booth "Paracombe' which flowered for me earlier this year. It is one of my favourite plants. Unfortunately it had only 2 flowers this time. I flowered it once before with three flowers.

Park Bear March 31st, 2005, 08:04 AM yes, very nice, I am going to need to move to a bigger house with room for a greenhouse, plus a part-time job, who needs to sleep :-dance: Paphgirl March 31st, 2005, 12:14 PM (don't know how I missed this!) Beautiful job growing, David! A very nice primary hybrid. There was one at the last show I went to. I'm still new at seeing these guys in person, so that was a nice experience. Thanks for sharing! Greenpaph September 16th, 2005, 11:39 PM Nice clone of Susan Booth! Dwayne Dibbley September 17th, 2005, 06:09 AM Excellent clone. Good growing. malipoense September 17th, 2005, 07:27 AM very nice plant ! I like the dorsal of that one ! TADD September 17th, 2005, 07:46 AM What a dissapointment :poke: Send it too Marcus he will eliminate it for a small fee.... Looks great! dustyatticstuff September 17th, 2005, 11:10 AM It's beautiful! I love the lighting in the photo. Great shot!!! :clap: :clap: Gideon September 17th, 2005, 02:23 PM Stunning :clap: :clap: :clap: Wendy September 18th, 2005, 09:49 AM Gorgeous!!! Mine should be blooming soon....I hope. Stephan September 18th, 2005, 07:11 PM I like it, I like it Just looking at it and then at my baby is painful :) Cheers Stephan Emydura September 18th, 2005, 07:26 PM Stephen - I bought this as a division off Dean Johnstone (Johnstones Orchids in SA) a couple of years back. This is from the same flask that produced Susan Booth 'Highercombe' AM/AOC. Dean was trying to sell a division of 'Highercombe' in Sydney recently for about $850. Nice plant but I wouldn't spend that much on it. I only spent a fraction of that on mine, and it is not that much poorer. David couscous74 September 18th, 2005, 08:02 PM Very nice. I hope it flowers again soon :-dance: Stephan September 18th, 2005, 08:47 PM Stephen - I bought this as a division off Dean Johnstone (Johnstones Orchids in SA) a couple of years back.

I only bought mine as a seedling from P & R not that long ago. It's a beautiful flower Dave - Are you thinking of getting it awarded next time it flowers? Cheers Stephan Emydura September 18th, 2005, 09:05 PM I think I need to get more flowers on it before I can start thinking about awards. There was another seedling from the same flask that received a HCC award on top of 'Highercombe's' AM award. So the clone I have was considered behind these two. Still, I have seen awarded Susan Booth's that to me weren't as nice as mine although I'm no orchid judge. So maybe one day. There is another growth that should flower soon.
