Beautiful plant, I love it!! Your pics remind me why it's on my wishlist. It bloomed quite fast, for a seedling.

I really like the white outline on the dorsal of the bloom.

Oh, I love it!

I have one of these, quite recently purchased, that has six fans but has never bloomed (as far as I can tell)! I hope I haven't managed to get one of those stubborn clones that just never blooms...

Though I generally don't like Paphs, this is probably the only one I can see me adding to my collection! It is SOO cute!!

I'm with Cody. I'm not generally a fan of Paphs, but I'm a HUGE Paph helenae fan!
