    Not a paph lover, but I do like this one. I think it's the lighter color and twisted petals.

    Quite different from any form I have seen before. Those have had much more green in the dorsal and much more red elsewhere. I note that various people who have seen them in the wild have talked about different colonies being different in these respects.
