I'm interested in getting a Paphiopedilum, unfortunately I live in a 1. warm-hot (26-32 degree Celsius) & 2. humid but windy climate. I'm have the following species to choose from:
and I think you will find you live in a area where more than just FOUR species can be kept. There are also a TON of hybrids that would work for your area as well.
Paph lawrenceanum and Paph chamberlainianum
lawrenceanum is a mottle leaf and these tend to be easy to grow.
chamberlainianum is a sequential bloomer who can bloom for months. also easy to grow

If I could only choose one it would be lowii. I love the coloration and the slight twist of the petals. But if space and money are no object go for the gusto and get them all!!
