I was never interested in paphiopedilums. I see them online and in conservatories and once in grocery shops and flower shops but never bought them. I guess I was just never a fan of single-flowered orchids and the big and numerous flowers always grabbed my attention until I saw a video in youtube of this paph venustum that I thought looked out of this world! so I started reading more about them and learned about their interesting history and the fact that they can only be propagated through seeds therefore mass producing a specific plant through cloning is currently impossible. So I am thinking of giving away some phals since a lot of them are in flower now to make space for two or more paphs depending on how well it does in my environment. I'm going to start with venustum and henryanum and maybe micranthum. I love my phals and they are a beautiful centerpiece but I know that they are easy to find whenever I miss them.
