    Default Paph St. Swithin in double bloom

    I bought this beautiful Paph Swithin in bloom. Although it was packed with the utmost care, there is a tear in the dorsal of the tallest bloom. It is so beautiful and at night it is much deeper yellow and rusty brown.

    Aren't they so regal! If it was shipped in bloom, a tiny tear isn't so bad. But don't worry - it looks great!

    St. Swithin must be one of the best mutliflorals out there! You've got a keeper there.
