    The 1st one looks like Paphiopedilum insigne. The 2nd one is a hybrid I suppose (maybe an insigne hybrid).

    Yes the first one looks like insignis but can't ID the second.
    Orchids are very eloquent.They tell their master by their appearance , how they are treated.

    I agree with Eric and Yew Sung. Paphiopedilum insigne is the first slipper orchid . Both are lovely. I love the carmel colors in the first one and the red of the second hybrid.

    cheers,

    Insigne indeed. I also have these, the second one will probably remain a NOID because these are too many similar crosses.
