Awards

AD / AOC 1990 'Black Knight'
0.00 points Exhibited by Streatfield G. TAS 14 June 1990
Measurements
Flower size 85 × 120 mm Petals 60 × 16 mm Dorsal sepal 43 × 47 mm Lateral sepals 38 × 22 mm Lip 42 × 18 mm

Petals grey purple 187A to black A. Labellum grey purple 187A. Dorsal grey purple 187D to 187B, striped 187A. A most distinctive and more than typically dark form of the ? vinicolor" type. What it lacked in shape was more than made up for in the depth of colour - so dark in parts that the light was unable to be reflected with the result that the typical Paphiopedilum sheen was replaced by flatness. A.D. for colour. Stem length 260mm.
