St. Swithin and Max tenuifolia
I dragged Mr E out to a local orchid show yesterday and couldn't resist getting this Paph. Saint Swithin
Boyfriend bought a little Maxillaria tenuifola. He really liked the one he saw at another show recently so had to buy one for us too  It smells gorgeous, of course!
