Default My first Paph.
This is my first Paph. I found this one at a Lowe's store a couple of weeks ago and it started to bloom a couple of days ago. I think she has a bit to go to fully open up. There are two different plants in the pot. The second spike has a while to go, it is solid burgendy so it looks to me it will be different than one blooming now.

The registered name of that hybrid is Hsinying Alien. Nice find! It should be an easy grower.

Beautiful plant! I have 2 of those (also a 2 for 1 deal). They are easy to grow and bloom every year.

Am I right in thinking this would be seedling plants rather than clones so you'd get some variation? Rather than two different clones being put in the pot by mistake?

Very nice! I believe Paphs are generally grown from seed - there's an issue with cloning them I believe, tho I don't remember exactly what. So yes, it's most likely the same orchid, but color variation
