Paph. callosum var. potentianum
Paphiopedilum callosum var. potentianum or potentianum? The plant is small. A mature growth averages 13-16 cm in leaf span (perfect for people who does not have a lot of space). Petals are smooth and free of warts. It's a real cute species. The spike is about 12 cm tall. The flower is about 7cm in natural span and about 5cm tall.
I put a lot of information as I was looking and there not a lot on info on this one.
