One of the nicest Paph species I have flowered.

wow..... seems unlikely this grex could be available in the US, but i'll ask about the source anyway... local Aussie breeding? or elsewhere?
 
That is like a painting...deserves a 16” by 20” enlargement and a nice frame! Great culture and great photography!

I bought this plant from an Australian orchid nursey - Orchid Species Plus. Bill Miles got a flask from an Asian nursery I believe - maybe Thailand (not 100% sure). This is the pink form of the species apparently. Bill told me the seedlings were pretty uniform in quality.
 
Thanks for the good side pic.

I can see the floral bract (the leaf like sheath where the flower connects to the stalk) and the ovary. Also the color transition of the pouch, with the 'exit lanes'.
