Paphiopedilum micranthum

[eggshells]

This plant reminds me why I need to get a few more next spring. I'm pretty proud of this one. Especially it was given to me by my friend.

The flower is bigger than the plant itself.

Nice clear/contrasty markings on the petals! It's not an easy species for me. Good growing!

This is one of those species that would still be stunning even if it never bloomed. The flowers, being both beautiful and a little outlandish, just make it that much more attractive. And as others have stated, your photos are great. Congrats.
