I recently acquired this division in spike. It sits by my desk where I can stare at it all the time.

Fantastic! I love it. Very nice hybrid.

Wow, gorgeous!

That's stunning! It looks like a yellow version of Paph micranthum. Is that one in the parentage somewhere?

Excellent photos as well, that last one is so sharp that every single hair stands out perfectly. Did you stop down a lot or do a stack?

I used a 100mm lens, f/18, shutter at .4, and a tripod. It's tough to take detailed photos of plants with natural light and a bigger f-stop.

Fumi's Delight is micranthum x armeniacum. This one is a very nice clone and I hope it will bloom again under my care so its parents are known to be rather reluctant bloomers.

Nice one!

Wow, a stunner for sure.
