Paph. micranthum in bloom
This is my first micranthum and having never looked very closely at them, I wasn't aware that they have tiny little hairs.

Hi Laura,
Great pictures. You must be so proud. I never knew they were so hairy. I have a Paphiopedilum micranthum var. eburneum that I’m looking forward to seeing flower.
Here are some nice pictures of them growing in situ: http://www.orchidata.com/read.php?tid=18283
Really nice pics, keep them coming.

Laura is your bucket truly white or is more blue.... cause mine just finished and it was more light blue. I crossed it with another just before it faded....

I just found this Russian site, and what awesome pictures they are of Paphiopedilum micranthum.  Click on the main picture to see the next one or click on the thumbnails at the bottom. There are also several other species pictured: Paphiopedilum micranthum
I hope mine looks even half as good when he eventually flowers for me.

Very nice micranthum, Laura. I love the shape on this one.
This wouldn't happen to be the same one you bought at the Tampa show, would it?  |
