Introducing Paphiopedilum Belgian Sunshine
I pollinated a Paphiopedilum Maudiae in January 2021 with pollen from Paphiopedilum Ma Folie. In August, I cut off a fruit. In September, I sent the fruit to The Orchids Lab for seeding, received it back in August 2022, and potted it. In October 2024, I discovered three flower buds. and in November 2024 they opened, allowing me to register it as a new hybrid, and gave it the name Paphiopedilum Belgian Sunshine.
I named it after the rare meteorological condition that allowed the specimens to flower in such a short time.

Beautiful flower! I love orchids but you’ve got real dedication to grow one from seed to bloom, one you hybridized nonetheless!! Fantastic work and congratulations on the registration
Congratulations! That is amazingly quick, especially for a Paph.
