    Hello♡
    So i got this paph the other day for helping a vendor unpack orchids for our society's show this weekend.
    Another friend of mine said to let the jugdes look at it to see what the think of it . I know its not symmetrical at all which is a big quality to have in a flower. But the asymmetry is so breath taking to me. So ill either take it just to see what the AOS Judges think. Any feed back if i should or not would be great. I really don't want to bring it and somehow loose him in all the happenings as ill be clerking and also helping vendors all day .. so i have untill tomorrow at 7am to choose to take it or not
    The other crosses of this name have normal purple/white flowers. This is a second bloom with a new fan coming up

    Anna -- Take the plant, it costs you nothing and a lot learn. Enjoy your show, you will learn a lot. Good luck

    Update on this wacky guy
    The jugdes where rather interested in seeing the process of the flower, it was close to getting a JC award but since i didnt see the previous flower there was no history.

    Anna - At least you found out what the judges thought of your plant. Bet you , you enjoyed every bit of what the judges had to say.

    Oh yes! They had some great things to say. I just wish it could be a year later so i could see the next bloom already.
    It also makes me want to become a student judge all the more
