Hi Olaf,

Great photos! We've had a plant in the collection since purchasing Birchwood Orchids in 1990 that I have been calling Paph. barbigerum `Red Dorsal'. (see photo). Is it possible this could actually be Paph. barbigerum var coccineum?

Thanks, Tom

Yes,to me seems coccineum(or lockianum..syn).

Dear Chien,
I would agree with valenzino, that these plants are the var. sulivongii.
But it is really difficult, barbigerum seems very variabel and there are a lot of local varieties and forms.

Best greetings

Olaf
