Somehow this lovely dark Paphiopedilum came home with me!

If you must know, what this is...it is Paph. (Macabre 'HOF' HCC/AOS x glanduliferum '#1')

got it from Waldor Orchids!

That Macabre cross is DARK!
I had a disagreement when we did our display because my friend helping REALLY wanted a very dark paph to be against the yellows. It did look great there but messed up the color flow. We had a judge come and critique and the first thing she did was move the Paph.

I love the second St. Swithin also.

What a display, some very well grown plants. Maybe one day I'll have impressive specimens like those. There I go dreaming again...

I can see why the dark one fallowed you home.

I really love these dark types, how much Waldor wants to let the plant goes home with you?

beautiful paph that followed you home!!

 

[SlipperFan]

Oh no! Not another one for my wish-list...

Originally, the price was $80 but got the plant for $70!
