I have to show these off. Two slipper #orchids blooming on a plant I got a year ago. They look kind of like 2 old ladies to me. 👵🏻👵🏻 #paph #paphiopedilum #flowers #bloomscrolling It took forever for them to open but here they are!

My slipper orchids are starting to bloom! This one is Paphiopedilum “Puna’s Greatness”. #orchid #paphiopedilum #paph

Happy that the first blooming of my Paph Hello Dolly (Doll’s Kobold x thaianum) turned out so well. Another flower on the same inflorescence on its way! #orchids #paph

And here it is at last. Vinicolor Maudiae #paphiopedilum. I swear it’s larger this time than it was when it bloomed before. What a handsome thing! #orchid #orchids #slipperorchid #paph

Two more pictures of my #Paphiopedilums before they finish. Both blooms are open on the Delenatii now. They have a faint but pleasing fragrance and lovely mossy looking leaves. The other is a named hybrid and what I like are the raised shiny dots and the hairs on the edges of the side petals which give it a kind of strange feel. #paph #paphiopedilum #orchids
