Yes, big... it's not one for a windowsill. And yes, I was most pleased. Seller was Everything Orchids, which sells through Etsy and eBay. I've bought from them before and never been disappointed.

I thought I would post a photo since I have not yet done that. The one in the front is the Paph delenatii and the one in the back is the Paphiopedilum Lynleigh Koopowitz (Paphiopedilum malipoense x Paphiopedilum delenatii). The leaves of both of these orchids are of the vinicolor/dunkel coloring which is rather neat as I had not expected it in the primary hybrid when I ordered it.
I need to pot the new one in the 1/4 inch lava rock and a larger plastic pot (with holes). If I think about it, I will take a photo of the roots.

Well, interesting. I have a Paph Lynleigh Koopowitz crossed with...something. Can't remember and not where I can check right now. It's one of the oldest in my paph collection now, back in the day when I was first starting to branch into paphs and phrags. Never gave it much thought at the time because it was new to me and I was fairly new into orchids. But has a plain leaf. Can't wait to look further into it once I get to the label. Those are gorgeous leaves.

I’m new to this forum ![Hello](http://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/hello.gif) but I’d like to participate.
I recently bought a Paph. Micheal Koopowitz from Paph Paradise and a Dr. Toot (delenatii x kolopakingii) I got from a vendor, I genuinely don’t remember who, at the Annual Paph Forum.
