Here are some pictures of one of our select Paph. charlesworthii. It has become a nice specimen plant. When I took the picture it had 5 open flowers and one bud. I think this species is turning to be one of my favorite Paph. species. It also makes great hybrids when you cross it onto maudiae types, and to complex Paph's.

Beautiful! This species has been on my wish list for a while. The dorsal on your specimen is lovely.
 
Very nice, pull those yellow leaves off, wipe off the leaves and get it to AOS judging this coming weekend in Chicago. Likely a CCM and a flower quality award there. Good job.
 
Very nice "Halo" Robert. Can't seem to grow this species here in South Texas. Believe me, I've tried!
 
Gorgeous P. charlesworthii and such a well grown plant!! :drool:
I think Leo is right it's worth to be awarded.

Best regards from Germany, rudolf
 
Do you think that the fertilizer chemical spots on the leaves actuallly help make it less apertizing to the insects? I wonder.
