Paph. Armeni White
 
I can't take credit for blooming this one, but I really like this clone for the lovely flower and smaller size of the plant.

It actully turned white several days after I took thess photos, thus the name Armeni "WHITE"...LOL, but I like the ivory color when it first bloomed, so I just pretend it is like that all the time:)

The fade to white is normal, at least yours starts out more yellow than most, and pretty good shape too. Most other armeniacum crosses hold the yellow color better. The delenatii parent is notorious for washing out color.

Thanks for the explanation! I guess I still like the shape of the delnatii hybrids for the flatter pocket. Magic lantern is a good one:)
