This is the Mother plant, blooming right now, too.

("Chico" x H.papilio)#15

This was the Pollen Donor
Flowers with narrower segments but the largest of all siblings, with a diameter of up to 18 cm

The following picture indicates the "extraordinary size" of the bloom from #18
The flowers at the right side in the background are from 2 scapes of #15 and these are much smaller. The current flowers are 16 cm in diameter. And the flowers of the one F2 seedling almost 18 cm

A sibling of/from said F2

And Another sibling, the color pattern of which reminds me of a certain "PapEcstasy". The substance of the flowers appears as if made from wax:

What beautiful flowers, I applaud your breeding efforts!!! I especially like the F2 sibling, it reminds me of the shape of a Sprekelia blossom. Please keep the beautiful pictures coming.

Warm Regards,
Fred

Oh , you mean the sibling with the closed envelope around the filaments...
It is beautiful but its scape is very thin. Oh, and it has set seed pods after pollination from "F1 #18" which bloomed recently.

The favorite, yet, is still unfolding its beauty:

Yes, it has an almost species look to it. They're all beautiful, you must be very happy...I certainly would be :-)))))

Warm Regards,
Fred

With great anticipation, I await the pleasure of seeing the full revelation of the favorite's beauty.

Congratulations,

Blanca

Thank you!

First off, another sibling:
