Default Paphiopedilum Germinyanum

This is a large flower, a primary between Paph villosum and hirsutissimum. I like the colors and size of the flowers, but they are heavy and bend the stems down. If you put the stems up, the flowers keep looking the sky...

As I said elsewhere to Kim, Paphs are really addictive Howard, and I'd love growing more of them, but climate in my area is impeditive (at least for most species or primaries).
