Paph. Strawberry Field
This is my newest purchase from Orchid Quest in Madison, WI. on Saturday. I can't find any info online about this one. The tag from Anything Orchids said it was Paph. Strawberry Field. I found a tag buried in the soil that said Paph. Strawberry Field from Arnold J. Klehm Growers.

I agree Badger! It's got terrific color and shape! Very unusual.

Well, this is gorgeous! I'm usually not really into the complex toad Paphs, but the coloring is very beautiful.
 Ya know what...I started to post here the run down on the parentage of this cross, and it's got such a complex lineage, I couldn't keep going...
I'll attach a screenshot of how far I got...
But, just goes to show why your Paph is so unusual looking!

Oh I love the color on this one. VERY pretty! I'd love to add this one to my collection.
(I looked at your sweet kitty, too, she's a doll)

That's one of the reasons I usually prefer species over hybrids, but this one looks like quite a charmer!

That's a fantastic Paph! I, too, am normally not a fan of complex Paphs (preferring species and primary hybrids), but this one is super! I would certainly keep it in my collection. Great buy!
