Default Paph Little By Little

Got this plant last year. Very excited to see it in bloom.
Flower is about 2-1/2" tall with a 3" natural spread. There's a second bud pushing up from another growth.

I love henryanum and what it brings to its' hybrids.
Great species/parent to have if one is short on room too.

Nice one Marcus.

Beautiful hybrid, looks like those spots were just dripped on with some chocolate!

I love the backlit photo, Marcus! It practically glows neon!

I was suprised when I looked this tyke up, that it's not a primary species of henryanum, because the influence is so strong.

It's, in fact, a cross between two primary hybrids that each have henryanum as a parent, so it's still %50 henryanum. The other two grandparents are charlesworthii and barbigerum.

A very cool complex!

Julie
