Very nice albine Paph!
The stem is very short and the staminodium seems to be quite small for a niveum.

not to be too cynical but it does have a godefroyae/leuco look about it, shape wise.

It's GORGEOUS!.....and I want it!!!! However, I agree, it doesn't look like pure niveum.

Super plant and flower.
Agreed it is not 100% niveum. Petals are too big,

The plant originally came from popow orchids and looking on there, website they have an extremely similar one called ang-thong alba

Ah HA! I was going to say it looks exactly like the ang-thong albums that Orchids Limited had for sale back in the early 90's. Why don't you write to popow and show them the photos and see what they say? It's an awesome flower and it'd be nice to have the correct ID.
