    I really didn't doubt that at all, Mietek - it was only the caption you wrote with it that confused me. I know it's native to India, and quite rare, and am so impressed by your beautiful bloom. I have never seen one for sale here - not even from the slipper specialty nurseries. Is it particularly tricky to grow? I apologize if I seem to have offended you - that was not my intent at all.

    MG, Maura, you didn't offended me.
    Paph. druyi is quite rare, but you can buy it, here in Germany. If it's difficult to grove, I don't think so. Not to much water and keep it warm. Full sunlight, but only afternoon.

    I don't know how I missed this. One of the best Paphiopediliums I've ever seen! Wish I had this one. AL
