Nice Paph! Not sure what it is, but it is pretty!

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

It looks like a cross between a Maudiae type and charlesworthii, but it's almost impossible to nail it down.

Henke ... sweet buy and great health for $7 bucks. It looks to me it's possible parentage is Raving Maniac. Check this out http://www.orchidboard.com/community...-9am-12_25.jpg), mine was taken in full bloom, looks like yours is only a few days into blooming, the pedals should be arching back a bit more. It is hard to really determine it's true genre, try contacting the vendor if noted on the tag...
