    Default Paphiopedilum spicerianum

    I have two spicerianum paphs in bloom. I like the difference in the pouches. The one in the second photo is a first bloom seedling. The first photo is a mature plant that has been blooming for us since 2005. The final photo is a group shot. Enjoy.

    Amazing. Hope mine grows into something that pretty. What's the leaf span on the first bloomer; so I can see how far mine still has to go?
