I've got a couple of new paphs budding up for the first time. I wonder if
anyone has seen the following:

P.Bel Royal (rothchildianum x kolopakingii)
This is a rather large single growth plant with an overall leaf spread of close
to 3 feet. It appears to have two buds on a rather strong stem. This plant was
bred by Krull Smith and purchased about two years ago as a small seedling.
Anyone flowered one or have any pictures of this hybrid?

P. Shin-Yi's Pride (Michael Koopowitz x rothchildianum)
This plant has two growths with about a 12 inch leaf spread. The sheath
covering the bud is dark red in color and it appears there is only a single
bud. I thought this plant was multi-flowered. This plant and several others
were bred in Taiwan and were purchased last year from a grower in the Tampa
area. Anyone flowered one or have any pictures of this hybrid ?

No - And next time I will get the BEL correct.
It did not time the bloom for a show or even judging.
