Noid vini colour Paph
To be honest this isn't my favorite of my two NoID vini colour Paphs. Both flowered recently but I didn't manage to get pictures of the other before it faded.
This is the more vigorous growing and flowering of the two, but the other has a nicer shape flower, with the petals held more erect and a nicer shape dorsal.
Never the less, this one has been flowering a couple of months now, and I love the colour

When I saw the top of the dorsal at the bottom of my screen my reaction was negative, but overall I like the form.

One of my "maudiae" x charlesworthii hybrid has this similar shape. The funny elongated tall dorsal.
Others have perfectly round dorsal.
The bad news is that all of them curl their dorsal over time. dang! I hate it. lol

Thanks everyone. This photo actually shows it at the best angle I think. It's not too bad and I do enjoy the colour a lot. Just wish my other with the better shape would grow as well as this one

Yeah.
The good news is that for the first time the vini colour Paph with the better flowers has two growths at once. Fingers cross that will start growing better :
