Default Paph druryi in bloom

I bought this little guy a couple of years ago and though I always say that I can't grow Paphs, this one continues to prove me wrong. (actually a have a handful of paphs and phrags and the ones that lasted, do bloom for me every year!)

Laura that is my second favorite Paph. Only topped by sanderianum. I will get them both someday. In the meantime I will admire yours. Congrats on the bloom!!!!!

Wonderful Paph. Laura! I love the fuzzy stripes! I think you forgot to tell this guy you can't grow Paphs.!

Thank you all, if I thought that I could grow them, then I would own a lot more of them.

Wow, Laura! I have never seen this species before! It is WAY cool! Looks like a small Paph too, yes?? I will have to be on the lookout for one. Totally awesome.
