One of my favorite Paph species, it is a early summer bloomer. The blooms last about 3 months.

That one I really would like having in my collection. But I don't feel I have the right condition for it. It is a sequential bloomer I suppose.

This likes cool intermediate conditions, a bit of shade and a fresh mix. It's not a sequential bloomer, just one very long spike and long lasting flowers. The foliage is very distinctive with textured mottling.

What a beauty....I have a primary with this species, but I think I need the species itself!

I think this is stunning! Reminds me a little of wolterianum. Certainly one for my wish list.
