Paphiopedilum curtisii

[paphjoint]

Not much in bloom these days so this one is very welcome

That is gorgeous! So symmetrical. I love the soft, subtle colors.

Mysterious seems good for this one. How big is this flower Uri?

What do you think is the difference between this and superbiens?

Rick,
Span is 7-8 cm, superbiens "should" be with a dorsal which has less green and with more straighten out petals and a bigger pouch

But look at this picture taken 5 years showing 4 different clones of curtisii/superbiens - ( I don't have these plants anymore)

Cool Uri!
I love these types.

thanks
