I think you will really like Paph. lowii, it really has an unmistakeable look that no other Paph. possesses. It really stands out in a crowd....especially when it is "specimen size"!

Going strictly by appearance alone, which I'm usually inclined to do, I voted for paph lowii. I hope you'll tell us which one you get and keep us updated on how it grows for you.

Lowii is perhaps the most impressive of the lot but all would grow easy in Singapore!
