Paphiopedilum Judge Philip?

[Brabantia]

This is a plant that I recovered 2 years ago at a repotting course organized by my orchid club. It had no more roots. After having applied to him my best care it is now in flowers. It seems to me that this an hybrid between Paphio philippinense and Paph pinocchio, but I am not sure. The plant span is around 40 centimeters but the flower is a little bit small around 10 centimeters diameter. This is maybe to small to be a Paph. Hevetia as showed us mkline3 recently?

I see no reason why it couldn't be a Judge Philip. I'd trust this tag.

No Jean no big cattleya in flowers at this moment. But the season for the mini-catts is begining. Wait a couple of days and you will see one on this forum.

Gorgeous striping on the dorsal and great rich colours overall..

I have a Judge Phillip...doesn't look like mine but them who knows how much variation could exist. Mine does not have the strong vertical striping in the dorsal. Here is mine from last year.

They're both nice...I love the heavy striping on the first one, especially!

I'd be happy with either one. Or Both!
