She currently blooming with another bud enroute. This one is a primary hybrid between P. acmodontum and P. hookerae. I'm very pleased with the form and colours.

Beautiful flower structure and colours, and it has another flower coming! Is it a large plant, and is it a vigorous grower? I like the little red 'light' in the pounch you captured in the second shot, awesome.

Great job Todd

I love the colors on this paph and your photography makes those colors truly "pop"!

I'm still trying to master the black background thing. The black background in the pics I've been practicing with always comes out looking kind of gray. I have some learnin' to do!

Wow, that is so cool. I love its babyish qualities.
