My Paph vietnamense
This plant went to the Spokane Orchid Society Show and Sale last weekend and took Best First Bloom Plant.
There is mechanical damage to one of the petals as when it was transported back from the show a leaf from another plant rubbed against it.
Hope you enjoy.

Congrats on the award Craig! That whole part of the orchid world still mystifies me. When I go to the shows, I think all the flowers are beautiful. If it were up to me, everyone would win! lol Guess it's a good thing I am not a judge  |

It's actually a bit smaller than ones that I've heard other people say they own.
The horizontal NS is about 8.8 CM and the vertical NS is about 7.5 CM.

Very nice. Petals seem incredibly fragile and very susceptible to damage. I guess its fragile nature just adds to the appeal
