They are so adorable! The blooms are true to its color and form. I cant beleive this is your very first Paph...I thought you already had so many in your collection.

I love Pinocchio! My favorite Paph, I just regret not buying one when the European market was flooded with them. Now they are impossible to find.

Love it Tucker, be sure and take it to your OS meeting, its a winner.

Very nice Tucker. What's your next paph going to be?

Bill

Such cuties! Good growing!

This is going to be my first paph when I get a little more room. Just love it.

That's the first I got to bloom as well! WTG!

First time i've seen that one. Very nice.

pinochio is a great paph, and i appreciate your photos of it! thanks, and good growing!!

If they bloom, they are special! Very nice!

Excellent paph and excellent photo - Nice work Jeff :D

Hi, Bill. I already bought one more. It's a Paph. Michael Koopowitz. I'm looking forward to seeing it in bloom.

I like sequential bloomers - of all kinds! How tall is the spike?

Nice one Tucker!

:)

Ooh, I've just bought/ordered one too! It'll arrive by the end of the week I think/hope.

What size is yours? I bought mine in blooming size, which really hurt my wallet. :p

This is a small plant with only one fan and another just starting. The spike is only about 10" tall. These are the first flowers.

Mine is very small. Only one fan right now plus another just starting. It spiked a couple of weeks after I received it.

Beautiful flowers, Tucker. Great job!!!

Love this orchid, great growing!

Seriously cute, good growing. I understand it's a sequential bloomer? gotta get me one

Lecent, yes it's a sequential bloomer and can keep going for a long time. It's a great orchid if you can find one. Like Camille said they were really popular in Europe a few years back and you could find them everywhere, now no-one is selling them. The nursery's tell my hybrids often go in phases like that :(

That reminds me that I still have to go visit the dutch nursery that sells it... I'd rather buy in person than online, since their quality is hit or miss.
Otherwise, look what I just found when I put the name through my custom google search: Paphiopedilum PINOCCHIO :: Wilhelm Hennis Orchideen -
