Here is a photo of a misshapen, but quite attractive flower. Guess the species.

You got it. The other flower on the spike was normal. It was in bloom at Piping Rock in June.

My eyes still haven't let me figure out how I'm seeing what appears to be a sepal on the inside of the two petals, but that deep red lip and the fact you said it was a species was a dead giveaway.

Piping Rock! Nice stuff there.

The zoolander mugatu Paph? Or flock of seagulls Paph.

Thats what I would call it. .

I like that flower -- though I have no doubt that many a paph purist might find it ugly. Be neat if it produced only that type of flower. (Wonder if AOS judges could get past the non-standard look to award such a beastie if it did exist?)

Never seen anything like it before. How did that happen?
