    Default Paph. Ma Belle

    Here is my 1st bloom Paph. Ma Belle (malipoense x bellatulum). This one has a nice form. It is about 3.5" across!

    Nice! I love the speckles. You can kinda see where the name fits - hold one to your ear and another to your lips and say 'HELLO!!' Good growing.

    That's a beauty! The marking on the petal contrasting with the clan bulbous lip is lovely... not to mention the rich raspberry staminode!
