This is my very first paph and the very first orchid I have gotten to bloom for me I am a little disappointed that the dorsal sepal never straitened out but I will get over it
That's a great one! It's got good color and shape. Once venustum get going they can really bloom well, so maybe the next flower will be even better! They like lots of water - I had a bud hanging around for a long time on a plant... because I wasn't watering it enough!
That is very colorful. For some reason I had in my head that I really didn't like these, but the more I see of them, they are starting to move higher up on the wish list.
My wife is going to be mad at all you people for enticing me to buy even more orchids!
