Gorgeous. I agree with Glen, they look great to me in the first pics, but the later ones have improved colour.

How dare you post pics of such a gorgeous but unavailable plant? You love to torture people, don't you?

I love the pink/yelllow color combo on this species.

the same way many of you in the USA post plants not available around here

By the way, in Slippertalk (the slippers forum), if I understood correctly, this species should be now legal and available in the USA.... and hangianum should be soon legal and available too, as I understood that a batch with legal CITES should arrive soon to... Hawaii (?)

Paph helenae is available in the US, there have been at least 3 awarded in the Chicago Judging Center last year alone.

Ok, so I wasn't a big fan of Paphs, I didn't dislike them, just not into them. No more. I am now determined to get my first Paph. Any suggestions for a Paph newbie? Preferably something that can be with my Phals (window sills and under growlights), but any suggestions at all would be cool.

Again, absolutely stunning!
