Default Paphiopedilum kolopakingii f. topperi
This beautiful form is also known from Borneo, as is Paphiopedilum kolopakingii. I have reports that this form is found higher up the mountain, and is larger than the typical species. It is noted to have greener flowers, but I don't find that to always be the case. I do notice that the leaves are wider and MUCH longer. This plant is exhibiting semi-albinism, though I will have to wait until the flowers are fully bloomed. Here's a picture of this wonderful form...
