Paphiopedilum hookerae Paphiopedilum hookerae (Mallingham HCC x Joanid)
Paphiopedium hookerae is a very rare orchid to find in cultivation. It is a slow growing Paph. It took me more than 10 years to find it in Canada and I finally found it from Flora Peculia in Toronto last year (2019 Spring). This is its first bloom. The flower spike is 30cm tall only which is on the short side for a Paph. hookerae.
