Default Paph Magic Lantern

Paphiopedilum "Magic Lantern" (primary hybrid, delenatii x micranthum). First bloom for this guy! One open bloom, another bud forming right below. It's hard to catch the depth of the pink in the actual flower.

Thanks for looking!

It's a very nice pink, I really like it! Does it feel as fuzzy as it looks?

The backsides of the petals have a bit of fuzz on them, but it's not soft like you think it's gonna be - kinda more prickly!

That's very nice Stephen! Mine is much too white for my liking. It has beautiful form though. It's in bud now, a few weeks from blooming. I like yours much better.

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)
