Two Paphs in bloom - Orchid Board

These are my two paphs in bloom.

1. Paph. Mt. Toro
2. Paph. Greyi (Oops! I forgot to pull the price tag out.)

The Mt. Toro is one of the oldest plants I have. It has mutiple growths and I am hoping to have two or more spikes some time.

Naoki they are both beautiful! It would be hard to choose just one. That said, the Greyi called my name immediately.

It's stunning!

Thank you guys!

Terri, the more I see the Greyi, the more I like it now. Glad I did not sell it at the orchid show last month.

I love the Mount Toro!! My favorite paphs are the only with the long twisty sepals like that. Is it a Paph philippinense hybrid?

Yep Camille, it is stonei x phillippinense

As kinknstein said, yes, it is. It is a very reliable bloomer for me and one of very few muti-growth paphs I have. I am hoping it will have more than one spike some time.
