This is Paphiopedilum Love Conquers and the first to bloom. It’s a cross I made between Paph concolor and my Paph Sorcerers Love. I emphasized ‘my’ because mine is a throwback considerably different from most. Paph Sorcerers Love is a complex that’s ancestral makeup is about 65% insigne. Mine is shaped more like an insigne.

So adorable! Huge synsepal that mirrors the dorsal sepal.

Congrats Fred. Let's get 12 more for an AQ!!

By the way, how many days has this been open? Need to assess 7-10 days after opening to see if current shape is stable.
