    Smile Paph. noid (Pinocchio pink?)

    This is my first (earned) blooming of this plant since I got it over 3 years ago! Unlike some of my others I haven't mistreated it either; it is just that slow of a grower! This is actually the second or third orchid I ever owned so I am happy to finally have bloomed it.

    Anyway, technically a noid, though I believe it is most likely a Pinocchio.

    Thanks for looking!

    Congratulations! It is always nice when you get your first earned bloom from a plant. (Especially one so beautiful as this one!!)

    Cheers,

    It certainly looks like it is Pinocchio to me. It can be highly variable. Nice job!
