About how long do the individual flowers last?

Yeah, these are really nice. I'd be interested in length of bloom as well. Paphs in general seem to hold the blossom longer than most other orchids (in my experience.)

Snow, I'm not much into names 'cause, as one forum participant says, "I'm orchidly compromised!" Anyway, your paph is a beauty but it sure looks like my Pinocchio (glaucophyllum v moquettianum x primulinum) and it is the glaucophyllum contribution that gives it the color.

You must post pics of it when it does co-operate!
