Default Looking for suggestions on next purchase

I'm looking for possibles for next Paph purchase with the following characteristics: multifloral and small in stature. By 'small' I mean, say 12" or so across whole fan. Mottled leaf might be best for my habitat (on the warm side 60s night to 70s day).

Suggestions?

Ross, check out Paph. Gloria Nagle. It's in the Minature book. It's multi-floral, not sure about the leaves, and compact.

Thank you, that's a goodie. Are you sure it's multi-floral?

Maybe this can give you a little assistance - Mini-Slipper Paphiopedilum Orchids - Orchids
You might want to try Woodstream and Parkside for mini paphs

How about Paph. Iantha Stage? Relatively small fans of growth (sukhakulii) and large flowers (roths.)
