Pretty picture: Paphiopedilum hybrid


Officially, this is Paphiopedilum (Michael Koopowitz x adductum) x Paph. Shin-Yi Edward #1, but I wasn't sure all that would fit in the title.

Also he prefers "Dave."

He looks like a Dave.

I spent way more time than I should have considering various names before settling on Dave, so I'm glad you agree.

That is a huge chin on Dave's face.
No Sheba/Nina picture today?

Nothing but orchids until I get the sell-trade post together.

awesome shot! love the paphs. How often will they bloom? Mine was blooming in the fall and I'm still waiting for a new spike to come up

I don't know. The plant in the photo isn't mine: it was at an orchid show I went to in March.
