Paph (venustum album 'Candor Limelite' x helenae 'USBG')

Not the showiest flower, but a reasonable combination of the parents, on a nice neat compact plant.
 
Is one really so much paler than the other? I wonder what the others look like...

The color intensity on mine would look much like Eric's if photographed in direct sunlight like his. My photo was with indirect sunlight through a window and warm fluorescent. His has a bit more red tone in the petals.
 
I got a compot of these from Antec's ebay listing - last year? This is one little plant - I like the helenae type dorsal and petal stance on this guy.

I like all three. I'm suprized to see the veining from venutum subdued. Amazing the dominates that little helenae has.
