Default Paph. helenae
What a charmer! If I had to grow only one Paph, this would be it (and for you doubters, yes, I do grow a few of the smaller species). Wish now I had gotten more than one when they were available - this is a first bloom seedling. There are more photos on the link and a couple that show how small it is in relation to a pair of old eyeglasses.

Nice Ron, I really like the white outline on the dorsal of this species.

Charming could be an understatement, Ron. Well done.
