Default Paph. primulinum var. purpurascens?

This little cutie stole my heart, so of course it had to come home with me. It was labelled only Paph. primulinum, but since that's a yellow form, could this one safely be called var. purpurascens?

Poor little thing is a little wonky because of being pushed around by the much bigger paphs in shipping. It also has fuzz from the packing material attached…so maybe don't judge its beauty or form just yet.

It's so tiny, the lip is only as big as my pinky fingernail.

I did exercise some willpower as I walked by it several times, picking it up to and putting it back, but since it was still there when I was ready to leave the show, I thought it had to come home with me, n'est-ce pas?

…Plus, it looks like it's doing this

I wonder if the bloom will always stay so tiny. I find it quite adorable.

What a great looking bloom with a nice standard.
