Rudolf's advice is very sound. Most vendors don't have everything listed in their web-shops - I gather, they have to have a larger stock of a plant for the effort to be worthwhile. So it always pays off to ask.
If you deal with Hilmar at Asendorfer Oz., make sure, that you get a plant of the size you want. His plants are of good quality, but a lot of his Paph-sortiment is made up of young plants in 7 cm pots (my patience - maybe also my age - doesn't work very well with buying plants of that size). But Hilmar is always friendly in communication and his answers straightforward.
You could also try: Orchideenhaus Asien in Schloß Holte-Stuckenbrock (they have a larger sortiment, than can be gleaned from their homepage - and VERY reasonable prices!).
Another option is Franz Glanz at Wößner Orchideen.
If you want to be sure of getting a masterianum, write to Sam Tsui of Orchid Inn (Paphiopedilum - Species - Page 8 - Orchid Inn Ltd.) and ask to be put on his mailing list to get informed when he visits Europe next time!
Thanks a lot Guidal!
I've already contacted Sam, but at this point, he has no plan as to come to Europe due pandemics and war.
About Hilmar I have not yet received an answer.
Will ask Orchid House Asia too.
A good friend of mine has got a beautiful mastersianum in Indonesia a long time ago probably 40 years ago still alive and flowering.
Hope to be able to take a shot of the flower when I will visit him next week.
