Hairy orchids are the best!

I bought it from Currlin (German nursery) for 19.50€, which is a great price I think. There were three plants of this size and all around 20€, two at Currlin's table and one at another table. While I was going back and forth between the tables, trying to decide which one I like most, two of the three plants were sold, so in the end, the burden of choice was lifted from me.

P.S.: Unfortunately Currlin's online shop is closed right now, but they said they will re-open within 2 weeks.

That's a bargain for a established Paph imho. Nice find!
