I got myself 8 more budded paphs recently.

All in dark bud with beautiful leaves, some I find really beautiful.
Three of them are cross between "typical" vini maudiae and paph. Charleswarthii, and the rest are coloratum or vini maudiae cross. All are named
Given the look of some buds, I expect some beautiful flowers, but it could be an ugly surprised as I have in the past.
I am hoping at least one will be very nice.
well, my anticipation is growing.
For now, I am doing my best trying to be positive and just enjoy the beautiful dark buds and the leaves.
I have really hard time capturing the beautifully colored leaves of the darkest two plants. oh, well...
