Paphiopedilum hermanii photo

[Slipperphotographer]

I bought this Paph. hermanii as a very small seedling at the International Orchid Show at Malvern from Hilmar at Asendorfer Orchideen 5 or 6 years back. It's doing well and has grown into a nice size plant, with 8 growths and three lovely flowers this autumn.

I love the contrasting colours, the chocolate brown dorsals with the lime green edge, all set off by the bright pink pouches.

That chocolate contrasting against the pink is striking. Now I wonder if I need to add hermanii to my wish list.
