Difference between Paphs and Cypripediums?
(first post)
I am beginning my collection of orchids and just got my 8th one- a lovely Paphiopedilum Napa Valley. After looking at plenty of pictures online and seeing some in the shop, I've noticed Paphiopedilums look strikingly similar to Cypripediums. How do you tell the difference when you are in the field? As well as this some sources are saying the Paphiopedilum is a type of Cypripedium while others say vice versa. Please help? Many thanks.
