Nice one! It must be cool watching the petal grow and twist - what is the time difference between those two blooms, and how long does the whole flower last?

The first one opened up sometime between December 22nd-27th, while I was up in Canada. The second one started to open last night around 8:00. I'll post another pic when the new flower is fully mature.

Wow Tony. I really like the yellow colors on this one.
For some reason I like yellow Paphs.
