Gideon June 2nd, 2005, 01:41 AM Stunning, I just love the form. Is the Paph Philippinense (light yellow form) from Ratcliffe's similar to the roebellinii? Paphraguy June 2nd, 2005, 08:03 AM Stunning, I just love the form. Is the Paph Philippinense (light yellow form) from Ratcliffe's similar to the roebellinii? Yes, the yellow form of laevigatum from Ratcliffe's should look similar to roebellinii but roebellinii has longer more twisted petals and of course much darker colors. |
