Default Paph. purpuratum
I must show you my latest blooming Paph, my little purpuratum. It has blooming now for approximately a week, and although it's far from perfect, I still like it a lot.

Enjoy!

It can only get better on the next bloom. The plant looks well grown, nice leaves.

Thanks guys! I can't take any credit for the plant OR the flower since I've only had it for about three months, but it's a nice purpuratum and I'm glad the newest fan didn't get squashed during the trip to Sweden as the two older ones did.

It is beautiful. It is from my native city, Hong Kong. But it is very endangered there, and local authority have hidden information of whereabouts they are so that poachers won't be able to get to them.
I heard that they can take some cool temps. Down to near 0c for a few hours. Do you grow it a bit cooler in the winter?

Thank you
Andrew
